Australian negotiator Stephen Davis,
who has recently provided a series of
scandalous allegations regarding the
Nigerian sponsors of Boko Haram, gives
another interview on the issue narrating
how Shekau hijacked the Islamist group
and revealing he had not been actually
hired by the Federal Government.
In a recent month Davis, allegedly hired by
the Nigerian federal government to
negotiate fro Chibok girls release. has
made a number of breaking claims.
He insisted that Chief of the Army Staff, Lt.
General Azubuike Ihejirika and the former
governor of Borno State Senator Ali Modu
Sheriff were among the major sect
sponsors , which information he was given
by Boko Haram commanders themselves.
Moreover, the Australian disclosed the
scheme according to which the insurgents
were passing a substantial amount of their
funds through the Central Bank of Nigeria
(CBN) with the help of its top official.

This weekend Stephen Davis gave interview
to Vanguard making clear some
information about being “hired” by the
Nigerian authorities and speaking about
the sect leader Abubakar Shekau.
“The Boko Haram we see today is not the
Jama’atu Ahlul Sunnah Lih Da’awa wal
Jihad (JAS) that was operational under
Yusuf – former JAS leader killed by the
police in 2009… Shekau formed Ansaru
which he used for kidnapping and
beheading victims. This behaviour was a
major departure from the original
mandate of the JAS which was to purify
Islam and return it to the exemplary life of
the Prophet. Many among the JAS
leadership are no longer active and others
have been killed.”
According to Davis, it allowed the terrorist
to take up more extreme action, including
abduction, bombing and mass killing.

“What we see now is not the Yusufiya
which wanted very much to settle a score
with former Governor Ali Modu Sheriff. It
is Boko Haram as a partner to ISIS and Al
Shabaab.”
“I was not hired by the Federal
Government”
The Australian did not deny the fact that
he had not been hired by the Nigerian,
authorities, which the latter had claimed in
the official statement .
Davis admitted that he came to Nigeria in
April to facilitate the release of the Chibok
girls abducted by Boko Haram, but denied
that he was engaged by any party.
“I was not engaged by the Federal
Government of Nigeria, any state
government or any other party. I went to
Nigeria in late April in an effort to facilitate
a handover of the Chibok captives after
discussing such a possibility with former
commanders of JAS (Jama’atu Ahlul
Sunnah Lih Da’awa wal Jihad otherwise
known as JAS) and others close to Boko
Haram.”
Speaking again about motives of the
insurgency sponsors, Davis warned the
politicians involved that they would not be
able to stop the militants like they might
think:
“Therein the sponsors assume they can
undermine any efforts of the current
government to be re-elected in 2015…
Should the sponsors of Boko Haram win
government in 2015, they will likely find
that they cannot turn Boko Haram off or
that Boko Haram will demand control of at
least Borno State in return for reducing
their attacks. Borno State may be just the
beginning of an expanding caliphate.”
Davis didn’t speak with real Boko
Haram leaders – Nigerian negotiator
In another development of the allegations
saga, there appeared a Nigerian negotiator,
who pleaded anonymity, saying that Sheriff
and Ihejirika could not have been Boko
Haram sponsors as the two men were
actually sworn enemies of the Islamist
group.
The source, who was said to have been
aiding the government to put an end to
insurgency in the country, even told
Vanguard that Sheriff was one of the three
most wanted enemies of the sect.
“I can tell you that the group has not
forgiven Sheriff over the killing of its
leader, Mohammed Yusuf, who was
arrested and killed during his tenure as
governor.”
The source narrated that Davis had come
to Nigeria on his own to secure the release
of Chibok girls abducted on April 14.
However he said that the Australian never
met the real commanders of Boko
Haram but depended on information
from a member of the Presidential
Committee on Dialogue and Amnesty
for information on the activities of the
sect .
“We can say with all amount of seriousness
that Davis did not meet the leadership and
main commanders of Boko Haram during
his visit to the North-east. If Davis insists
that he met with any senior commander or
leader of the sect, we challenge him to
mention their names and ranks.”
Meanwhile the ex Borno governor
threatens Davis with the legal proceedings
over the allegations. Reacting to the
threats, the Australian dares Sheriff to sue
him saying that in that case Sheriff would
not be able to escape from the truth.
At the same time the Nigerian Department
of State Security (DSS) is believed to have
started investigation over the allegations
provided by Davis however it was
mentioned that there were no plans to
prosecute “any Nigerian” based solely on
the claims of the Australian expert.

Those guys are the product of top northern politicians. Maybe they grew to hate them right now but initially, they supported them, we all know. The australian man should shut up and stop looking for cheap popularity.
