Australian hostage negotiator, Stephen Davis, is revealing more information he alleges to be true.

Yesterday, BN brought you the news that Davis, who spent four months negotiating with Boko Haram on behalf of the Nigerian government to free the over 200 abducted Chibok school girls, stated that prominent Nigerian politicians are “primary sponsors” of Boko Haram.

In another interview, he tells The Cable that Boko Haram insurgents informed him that a senior CBN official was involved in funding their terrorism activities. According to him, the official currently works in the currency operations division of the bank, and is the one handling the transactions.

Speaking on why Western countries have been unable to trace Boko Haram’s source of funding, he says funding is done through “…a legal channel, through the gatekeeper – the CBN, and that makes it very easy to cover up.”

Some more excerpts from the interview:

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.

This guy keeps spilling information n the government doesn't seem to care. Why don't they investigate n question this guy.. or is it that this government is not interested in ending the bokoharam menace

I believe the so called aussie negotiator must be having amala and ewedu for brain matter. The guy is just running his mouth to remain relevant.

you are right, government is not showing interest in what this Australian hostage negotiator (Stephen Davis) is saying because federal government are indirectly behind and sponsoring Boko Haram, May the Almighty God declare war over those that are betraying our great nation. God bless Nigeria...

his allegations should be verified.
those who can read between d lines know dat Egbere gej is a lying,heartless SOB.

snipet: OP atleast do a good work before painting somebody black. where is your source?

op needs no source,even d blind ones knows we ve a fuucken leadership problem nd if not expunged promptly,wld leave us worse than somalia.


this is no time for senseless propaganda because our action,reaction or inaction wld tell on posterity.
the truthful ones ve no friends.

So na today una want come know say na Sanusi Lamido Sanusi be the financial strategist for the group? Of course, he did not work alone. All the Northern Govs and the LG Chairmen pay a part of their monthly allocations to the group.

That was why when things turned against SLS as the CBN helmsman, all the Northern elites decided he be crowned as the Emir all to shield the whole deal.

But time will always tell, belatedly.

And now that Sanusi has left, is Emefiele now a sponsoring them?
Or they haven't finished the money sanusi gave them even with their increased onslaught

I wonder who comes up with these rubbish. Do you even know who a negotiator is at all?

Common sense should tell those spreading these rubbish news that a negotiator will never divulge any information about any party he/she is negotiating with because that gravely compromises his/her position.

How do you expect the goodwill of people you are exposing? Or you think the job of a negotiator is by chance? These people have job ethics too.

Is the negotiator not supposed to report directly to the FG?
This aussie might just be out to cause tension that will split Nigeria.

In as much as the Gej administration is not proactive enough, it is not also reactive.
Making it immune to manipulations by media propaganda.

mention names not just a senior official

there r many senior officials in cbn
