High-Profile Financiers, Federal Lawmaker Are Sponsors Of Nnamdi Kanu, Sunday Igboho- Buhari

 

 

President Muhammadu Buhari has accused high-profile financiers and a federal lawmaker of sponsoring separatists, Nnamdi Kanu and Sunday Igboho.

Buhari said this on Friday as he addressed the nation in his Independence Day broadcast.

“The recent arrests of Nnamdi Kanu and Sunday Adeyemo, and the ongoing investigations being conducted have revealed certain high-profile financiers behind these individuals. We are vigorously pursuing these financiers including one identified as a serving member of the national assembly.

“Fellow Nigerians, this is a clear example of how people abandon their national leadership positions for their selfish gains. Instead of preaching unity, they are funding and misleading our youth to conduct criminal acts that sometimes lead to unfortunate and unnecessary loss of lives and property.

“As the so-called leaders run abroad to hide, our innocent youths are misled and left in the streets to fight for their senseless and destructive causes.

“Government will continue, with greater level of peoples’ participation and in collaboration with our international partners, to improve the security architecture, reduce enabling environment for criminality to thrive and eliminate opportunities for terrorism financing,” he said
