Nigerians on Twitter have reacted with funny memes to the announcement of a $7 million (N2.5 billion) bounty for information that would lead to the capture of Boko Haram leader, Abubakar Shekau.

An arm of the US Department of State made the announcement on Tuesday via a tweet.

Shekau is currently number eight on the list of the most wanted terrorists by the US.

He has led the group in organising violent attacks, killings and kidnappings, particularly in the Northeast.
