Shekau has always been a hypocrite and doesn't stand/represent islam.
I am beginning to wonder those that criticise and called islam all sort of names because of this man are now the ones supporting him for condemning sharia law.
Bunches of hypocrite

It looks like @AustinNwabufo speculations are not wrong after all.
Something is cooking in this Niger area.
