SSS Arrest Senator Ali Ndume For Allegedly Sponsoring Boko Haram

An official of the SSS, who did not want his name published, confirmed
the arrest and said the senator would soon face trial.“He is presently
being detained in SSS custody, pending his arraignment in court,” he
said. “Based on the confession of some Boko Haram suspects in custody,
we have interrogated Ndume and he has made a statement accordingly. We
are going to charge him to court on Tuesday (today) with some of the
suspects in our custody.”

The suspect also named former Borno State Governor Ali Modu Sheriff and Nigeria’s former Ambassador to Sao Tome and Principe, the late Saidu Pindar, as financial backers of Boko Haram.
