Speaking in Hausa, he said

"Most of our territory is still under our control,The armies claim through the media that they captured our towns and that they assaulted Sambisa (forest) and defeated us,
"I swear by Allah that I am talking right now from Sambisa... Here in Sambisa you can travel more than four to five hours under the black flag of Islam by car or by motorbike,"

 The latter parts of the video include depictions of gruesome violence, including executions of apparent civilians and one man in a Nigeria police uniform, who are shot at close range.
