She said Shekau had inflicted so much pain on her and she had given up on him.

“I gave birth to him and on my own part, that is the only and last thing between us. Whether he is alive or not; we have parted ways.”

“I never knew whether he had any offspring. He inflicted severe pain on me. God Almighty will judge between us in the hereafter.”

In May, Shekau was killed during a face-off with fighters of the Islamic State in West Africa Province (ISWAP).
