"The so-called Islamic State (IS) jihadist group has announced a
new leader for its West African branch, popularly known as Boko Haram.
"The latest issue of an IS magazine featured what it called its
first interview with Abu Musab al-Barnawi, who replaces the eccentric
Abubakar Shekau.
"In a video clip released in January 2015, Mr al-Barnawi
