Before joining the group’s media wing, he reportedly commanded several cross-border raids into neighbouring Cameroon, where he led attacks against security forces before transitioning into media operations.
His death is regarded as a significant blow to ISWAP’s propaganda machinery, as he played a central role in recording and disseminating the group’s operational footage and media content.
The confirmation of his death by the terrorist group comes after Nigerian troops repelled the attempted assault on the military base, inflicting heavy casualties on the attackers and neutralising several key operatives.
