Boko Haram terrorists on Wednesday released a video showing the execution of five humanitarian workers that they earlier abducted.
It was gathered that the insurgents had made contact, demanding about $500,000, which was not paid.
It was indicated in the video released on Wednesday that insurgents ran out of patience and executed the aid workers.
In the video, the insurgents said the humanitarian workers were โworking for unbelievers who donโt care about you.โ
Their message read: โWe are sending this as a very strong message to you unbelievers and infidels. And to those of you that are being used by these infidels to repent.
โYou are working for them but they do not have any concern about you.
โYou worked for them to achieve their goals but they are very far from your plight. They do not show you any care. Look at you now. When we kidnap you they donโt care. They show no concern.
โWe are calling on all you unbelievers to repent and turn to Allah.
โWe will continue to abduct you people at every road that we see you if you donโt repent to work for them. It is a warning to all of you.โ
