Australian hostage negotiator, Davis Stephen, has again issued another daring statement after 72 hours of his claim that a former Borno governor, and an unnamed retired army chief were sponsors of Boko Haram.

The statement by the Perth-based international adviser, who for four months was involved in negotiations on behalf of the federal government with commanders of the Boko Haram for the release of over 200 schoolgirls kidnapped by the sect last April, referred to Senator Ali Modu Sheriff, and a former Chief of Army Staff, Lt-General Azubuike Ihejirika.

In an interview with TheCable, Stephen, said a Senior official of the Central Bank of Nigeria, CBN, who just left the country’s apex bank handled the financial transactions of the sect group.


His words: “One of the biggest of suppliers of arms and military uniforms to the JAS (Jama’atu Ahlis Sunna Lidda’awati wal-Jihad, better known as Boko Haram) currently lives in Cairo, Egypt. He is the recipient of money sent by political sponsors from Nigeria.

“The funds go through the CBN’s financial system and appear to be a legal transaction. Meanwhile, the CBN official who handles the funding is an uncle to three of those arrested in connection with the Nyanya bombings. The three boys lived with him.

“They were arrested by the SSS (Department of State Security) after the bombings but they do not seem to have been interrogated about their uncle in CBN. Or if they have given up information about their uncle, then the SSS has not moved against him.”

The expert in negotiations added that, “Also, a senior official of CBN, who recently left the bank, was very close to Sodiq Aminu Ogwuche, the mastermind of the Nyanya bombings who also schooled in Sudan.


“Boko Haram Commanders said Ogwuche’s wife used to visit this top official in his office at the headquarters of the bank in Abuja before the Nyanya bombings. They were very close,” Davis said.

He said he is speaking out now because he feels the Federal government is doing little in the rescue of the missing Chibok girls.

“I have three daughters. I just cannot stand the thought of what those girls are passing through.


“I have spoken to an escapee who described how she was being raped for 40 days by militants. I can’t stand it. It is heart-breaking. Nigerian authorities must act decisively now,” Stephen urged

I guess that was the Intent of the Islamic Bank 'they' Created.
The only time they had the opportunity to showcase the so called Interest free Banking, they clearly demonstrated what the religion is meant for. Your guess is as good as mine. No one can convince me that Islam is a religion of Peace. Anyway, Peace may mean another thing in their dictionary.
