After DSS Grilling, Police Invites Mailafia Again For Linking Northern Governor To Boko Haram

The Nigeria Police Force has invited a former Deputy Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria, Dr Obadiah Mailafia, for questioning over a comment he recently made during a radio interview, where he linked a northern governor to Boko Haram insurgency.

The police probe comes despite a separate investigation of the former CBN governor by the Department of State Services (DSS) who had invited him to their office last week.

In a letter dated August 20, 2020, and signed by a Deputy Commissioner of Police (Admin), Umar Mamman Sanda, Mailafiya is expected to appear at the Force Headquarters in Abuja, by 11:00 a.m. on Monday, August 24, 2020.

KanyiDaily recalls that during an interview, Mailafia said that a top repentant terrorists told him that a serving northern governor was the Boko Haram leader.
