However, in a video released on Tuesday, Shekau said at least 78 farmers were killed in the tragic incident.

He stated that his men went after the farmers because they handed over a member of the sect to the Nigerian army.

Shekau further warned that those giving out intelligence on Boko Haram activities to the military will face the same fate.
