But, before the government had even announced its decision, Boko Haram’s leader, Abubakar Shekau, rejected the offer. In an audio recording that he sent to journalists earlier this month, he stated that the organization had done nothing to warrant an amnesty.
但是，政府还没有宣布这一决定之，博科圣地领袖谢考（Abubakar Shekau）就拒绝了它。在本月早些时候发给记者的电台录音中，他声称博科圣地组织不会为了赦免而做出保证。据谢考的说法，尼日利亚政府才是邪恶的一方，博科圣地不会放弃斗争。
