Abuja: Nigeria’s Air Force said it had killed some senior Boko Haram militants and believed it had fatally wounded the group`s leader in a raid on the Islamists` northeast heartland.
"Their leader, so-called `Abubakar Shekau`, is believed to be fatally wounded on his shoulders," the statement released on Tuesday from Army spokesman Colonel Sani Kukasheka Usman added.
The military has reported Shekau`s death in the past, only to have a man purporting to be him appear later, apparently unharmed, making video statements. There was no immediate reaction from the group.
