Boko Haram Sponsor inside CBN is Exposed
The stunning research and revelation of Australian independent negotiator, Dr Stephen Davis,on the
alleged sponsors of the Boko Haram
Islamic sect, indicted former Chief of
Army Staff, General Azubuike
Ihejirika (retd), the usual suspect,
Senator Ali Modu Sheriff, former
Borno State governor, and an
anonymous senior official of the
Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) may
not settle any time soon as fingers
are now being pointed at the
Presidency for hobnobbing with
accused sponsors of immitigable and
unmitigated terror unleashed on
Nigerians.
Dr Davis alleged that prominent
politicians are the chief sponsors of Boko
Haram and that they channel their fund
through the CBN so it appears to be
legal. The official in charge of the
transactions, Davis alleged, currently
works in the currency operations division
of the CBN. One would think the
President would order security
operatives to swoop on the CBN official
and the two other accused persons. Hell
no! Not here. The presidency would
rather regard Davis'exposé as an attempt
to bring down the Goodluck Jonathan
government.
Whatever must have emboldened the
Hostage negotiator to name names, he
has broken the official taboo against
exposing persons behind atrocities like
the Boko Haram menace. And Davis can't
be wrong. He has worked for three
successive presidents. Even if the
Jonathan presidency denies it, there is
incontrovertible evidence that he was
part of negotiators contracted to broker
the release of the abducted Chibok girls.
His revelation gives us an opportunity to
nail the sect's backers. However, there
was nothing he said about the sponsors
that was new.
Senator Ali Modu Sheriff has been in the
news, not once or twice, for alleged links
with the rampaging Jihadist
fundamentalists. The sect blossomed to
full terror under his 'stewardship' as
governor of Borno state. Sometime in
2011, Senator Sheriff was named as an
alleged sponsor of the sect in a
confessional statement made by one
Sanda Umar Konduga, an arrested
spokesperson of the Boko Haram. As ex-
governor, he was arrested on March 28,
2012 in Cameroon on the grounds that
he was sponsoring terrorism in
neighbouring Borno state. Like a tail that
wags behind a dog, the tag of a Boko
Haram sponsor would not sever from
Modu Sheriff anywhere his name is
mentioned.
Nevertheless, the hostagenegotiator's
claims against Gen. Ihejirika, former
Chief of Army Staff, the CBN official and
Modu Sheriff are mere allegations and
should be treated as such until proven
otherwise.
