Al-Shabab propaganda video could pose a renewed threat to the region and beyond

The dissemination of this slick, propaganda video by al-Shabaab appears to be intended to recruit more fighters from the region as it’s translated into seven languages including Somali, English, Arabic; and more significantly - Amharic, Oromo, Swahili and French.It is upon the regions gorvenments to work hard and curtail this propaganda and prevent toxic indoctrination that may see many youth fanatically joining the terror group.With alarming rates of unemployment and the more threatened life of youths in regular war torn countries especially DRC,the SUDAN,the Sahel,we may end up seeing more youth joining this terror group.

According to open source intelligence,many alshabaab sympathisers claim to have identified the GPS location of the area where some the trainings were conducted especially the training in techniques relate mountain climbing.Its upon the African intelligence bodies,the CIA , to identify such places and then do the needful.
