An audio recording suggests Abubakar Shekau killed himself during a gunfight with a rival group.

The leader of the Nigerian militant group Boko Haram, Abubakar Shekau, has killed himself, a rival militant group said in an audio recording.

In the undated audio recording, a voice thought to be that of Iswap leader Abu Musab al-Barnawi said Shekau "killed himself instantly by detonating an explosive". Army spokesman Brig Gen Mohammed Yerima told the BBC the army was looking into what happened, but that it would not issue a statement until it got definitive proof.
