FG Gets 14-day Ultimatum To Act On Modu-Sheriff, $9.3million Arms Deal

A former House of Representatives member and anti-corruption crusader, Dino Melaye alongside his comrades yesterday floated a new civil rights group and immediately issued a 14-day ultimatum to the Federal Government to set up an independent probe into an allegation that a former Borno State Governor, Modu Sheriff, was sponsoring the Boko Haram sect and on the arms deal involving $9.3million.

This is in response to the allegation leveled by an Australian negotiator in the Boko Haram crisis, Stephen Davis, who also implicated the immediate past chief of army staff, Azubuike Ihejierika.

Melaye’s new group called: Citizens Arise Movement of Nigeria, CAMON, equally tasked the federal government to “come out clearly on the question of the $9.3 million impounded by the South African authorities since the laws of both South Africa and Nigeria have been expressly violated.

”The group argued that it was necessary to do this so that those involved in the alleged criminal act would be prosecuted and jailed for breaking “our laws and the laws of a foreign country and bringing so much disrepute to our image as a nation.
