Insightful. If true, this is reminiscent of the earlier days of ISIS in Somalia, wherein a commander or ideologue would leave & grabs a number of fighters along. This defection from Shabaab isn’t on a big scale, but noticeable nonetheless. Shabaab is known to hunt down defectors. — PolitiTweet.org

Lots of buzz from ISIS supporters regarding Al Shabaab commander "Abdulfatah Abu bakar Abdi" aka "Mousa al Muhajir"… https://t.co/ngPSBk0q3z
