The United States Department of State has offered a juicy
$7m reward, about N2.52 billion for information that can lead to the arrest of
Abubakar Shekau, the Boko Haram leader menacing Nigeria and the neighbouring
countries.
The bounty was the biggest placed on all the terrorists
declared wanted by the United States government.
“Every government and every citizen has a stake in bringing
terrorists to justice and in preventing acts of terrorism”, the US State
Department said.
The offer was made on the French version of the official
Twitter account of the US State Department Rewards for Justice Program.
The notice provides the contact details for anyone who is
interested in collecting the bounty as #Whatsapp: +1 202 975 9195 and

It was not clear why the Department of State chose to
declare Shekau wanted in the French version of its Twitter accounts.
In the English version of the Twitter account, which was
opened 27 February, the Reward for Justice Program also offered $5million
reward for information on 3 ISIS leaders and another $6m on another terror
group AQAP leaders.
Keep ISIS on the ropes. Submit a tip on these last few remaining terrorists and be eligible for a reward. https://t.co/MC2BvkaaUY— Rewards for Justice (@RFJ_USA) March 2, 2020
