The DSS detained him for questioning for over six hours in their Jos, Plateau State office.

However, Mailafia made it clear he did not need to retract the statement he made, during a recent interview.

Mailafia, who arrived at the office the DSS office around 12.30pm along with his lawyers, did not leave until 6.40pm

On his claims, he said, “Yes, all of those words were made by me. If the whole of the 55 minutes was played out, the context of what I said would have become clearer.

“This is not the time to disown what I said. Yes, I was privy to some very sensitive information which all statesmen are entitled to have by virtue of our public roles.

“I know that I should have corroborated some of the information I received, but perhaps some of it was uncorroborated. I was in no position to follow them to the camp to corroborate what was going on.”

Mailafia added that “I must never give up on Nigeria, if need be, I will die for Nigeria.”

Meanwhile, the Northern Governors Forum (NGF) has called for an investigation into the claims.

Some people cash out from the killing of innocent people. Terrorist is still on the high because there are sabotage everywhere. The level of sabotage we have up North and in the military gives the terrorist upper hand.

Una well done.

I know the man didn't make unfounded allegations just for making sak

You are from southern Kaduna,you know what you are saying, please drop more facts,where is OBJ and Danjuma,he must not be left alone with this ragging wolve??
An ex deputy CBN gov is too educated to just release hearsay...... without facts.

Start defending yourself and getting your voters card my Southern people and North central folks and lets unite .
They are always using divide and rule tactics........,we need to have serious participation

Bokoharam members and sponsors are flesh and blood too and dwells amongs us. Its the duty of every well meaning Nigerian to expose them.

C O U R A G E


God bless Obadiah for speaking truth to power

Who is the governor?
That's one big question Nigerians are yet to get answer.

“This is not the time to disown what I said. Yes, I was privy to some very sensitive information which all statesmen are entitled to have by virtue of our public roles.
“I know that I should have corroborated some of the information I received, but perhaps some of it was uncorroborated. I was in no position to follow them to the camp to corroborate what was going on.”

With the the confidence he exuded, and manner he stood his ground, somebody must really be somewhere stabbing the nation at the back by ruining the security architecture

Die for Nigeria you die for nothing God bless the land of Odua.

This is seriously serious

The man just opened the already opened
yansh, northern Nigeria is our headache.

You always find ways to chip in the gospel.

DSS Should work towards his claim. Since he's still asserting it,he is close to truth.
We need a saner Nigeria with violence Free.
God bless The Federal Republic of Nigeria

Prime suspects: Hell-Rufia and Masari abi na Miscarriage in Kastina





argue with your private part!!!

Nigeria is a funny country. Is the authorities not supposed to be working on his tip to unravel the mystery behind Boko Haram's sponsors. But instead they are forcing him to retract the statement...Nigeria is certainly the most corrupt country in the world.

Of course it is North project, imagine Kaduna having a Governor in the same party with his President, still the killing of Southern Kaduna people still persists after up to 6 years it started, Northern leaders have no human feeling or conscience

You cant kill the soul and so can never never kill the truth.

Can this man walk his talk? No just open mouth 'waa' like running tap. The allegations are too weighty

Make DSs no kill this man oooo

I thought we are done with bokoharam
I heard Buhari in the news bragging how he will execute maximum securies in the states.. nah waoooh nah God go help this country from senseless leaders

As E dey hot!

Instead of the useless government to do a proper investigation into this man's claim and nail or bring to book those found guilty, they are busy trying to cow the man to retract his statement.


What exactly is this government scared or worried about this man's claim?

Doesn't this show the government is truly involved in the sponsorship of bokoharam and banditry?

lol
You always find ways to chip in the gospel.

And so?!

Anyways, Jesus loves you by force, by fire!!

I knew and said it oooooo...
First, they took down the video.
Secondly, they've threatened him like they always do..
Intimidation is their motto!!
But he won't back down.. He is not a coward and hez definitely not from that section of the country known for betraying their people

I think he meant the guy that stays in Hell's roof. I mean the NAZI HELL ROOFER.

They get mind ooo

How can you openly come out to tell a man to lie to everyone who would know it's a lie.

Great, he should please back up his claims with proof. We don't want media trial. If he turns out to be another rabble rouser then he should face judgement of the law.

We don't want another Rwanda occurrence in Nigeria
