The video, which has gone viral, is the first video recording since Boko Haram pledged allegiance to the Islamic State last year.
The video showed the suspected Nigerian soldier in a kneeling position surrounded by three terrorists wielding AK 47 assault rifles and later another picture without the head.
This video is coming as the Nigerian president and government work day and night to tackle and end the insurgency before it runs out of hand.
