“It is indeed all over the global media of infidels that I am dead or that I am sick,” he said.

“It should be understood that this is false. This is indeed a lie. If it were true, my voice wouldn’t have been heard, now that I am speaking.

“I have not disappeared. I am still alive and I will not die until my time appointed by Allah is up.”

Also Ahmad Salkida, a Nigerian journalist known to have access to top commanders of the sect, had said the Boko Haram leader was still alive.
