I don’t know where Abubakar Shekau is – Chadian President

The Chadian President, Idris Derby, on Monday made a turn around as he said that he does not know the where about of the leader of Boko Haram, Abubakar Shekau according to vanguardngr.

President Derby had in a widely circulated claim said some months ago that he knew where the Boko Haram leader was hiding and had warned him to surrender or risked being killed by Chadian forces.

“I cannot tell you today that I know where Shekau is hiding ‎and even if I knew I won’t tell you” he said tersely in an answer to a question with state House correspondents after meeting with President Jonathan.

“Is regrettable that the two armies that is the Nigerian army and the Chadian Army are working separating in the field, they are not undertaking joint operation. If they were operating joint operation probably they would have achieved more results” he said.
