Abubakar Malami SAN, Attorney-General of the federation, has disclosed the major financier of Sunday Igboho’s identity
The Attorney-General of the Federation AGF and Minister of Justice Abubakar Malami disclosed on Friday that the Federal Government has found that the major financier of the Yoruba nation agitator, Sunday Adeyemo aka Igboho is a member of the National Assembly.
Malami, who was silent on the identity of the federal lawmaker, said a report by a security committee constituted by the FG also revealed that Igboho allegedly received funding from a firm – Abbai Bako and Sons – allegedly being probed for terrorism financing activities.
“Abdullahi Umar Usman is, by way of financial transaction, connected to Surajo Abubakar Muhammad who was sentenced to life imprisonment in UAE on charges of financing terrorism Boko Haram,” Malami said.
Addressing a press conference in Abuja on Friday, Malami said the committee also made damning discoveries about the activities of the leader of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra IPOB, Nnamdi Kanu and his following, noting that there was information that Kanu was receiving supports from both within and outside Nigeria.
Malami gave details of persons allegedly killed and property destroyed by Kanu’s associates his inciting comment
“We have also established that KANU is not alone in its subversive activities.
“Some of the state actors aided KANU, even as a fugitive, in his destructive mission, ignoring the terrorist nature of his activities.
According to Malami, a committee set up by the government found out that Igboho is linked to 43 bank accounts in nine banks.
“We call on these countries to desist from aiding subversive acts by KANU and IPOB against the state of Nigeria and its people,” Malami said.
