Australian Negotiator Names Ali Modu Sheriff And Ihejirika As Boko Haram Sponsors

63-year-old Australian expert, Dr. Stephen Davis, a negotiator in the Chibok kidnappings, has named Former Borno Governor Ali Modu Sheriff and immediate chief of army staff Lt-Gen Ihejirika (sacked January 2014) as Boko Haram sponsors on ARISE NEWS [Watch].

Davis, who had worked as an adviser for Olusegun Obasanjo and Shehu Yar’Adua in the past, spent 4 intense months in the North-East trying to negotiate the release of the more than 200 school girls kidnapped by Boko Haram on April 14, but without success.

Dr Davis has just returned to Australia with rare footage of the intense fighting in the region, and lots of insider opinion. In a recent interview with Radio Australia, he explained that the main aim for the Nigerian authorities was now to block Boko Haram funding and find its sponsors, alleging that some banks and politicians are among them.

Davis said that many of the insurgency sponsors were in the opposition and this will make it difficult, should the President try to prosecute them.

The singer sure loves joking around with her husband, and I'm sure no one is thinking of refunds or exchanges in the Savage-Balogun camp. Or are they?
