Boko Haram Spokesperson Under Psychiatric Evaluation For Display Of Abnormal Behaviour

The Borno Police Command said on Monday that it had placed a self-proclaimed former spokesperson of the Boko Haram sect, Ali Konduga, under psychiatric investigation.

This, the police said, followed Mr. Konduga’s display of abnormal behaviour since his arrest last week.

Victor Isuku, the spokesman of the command, said this in a statement he issued in Maiduguri.

Mr. Isuku said that Konduga was arrested after a complaint by one Muhammadu Kala.

“On September 14, one Muhammadu Kala lodged a complaint at the GRA Police Station, Maiduguri, that Mallam Ali konduga of Gwange ward had trespassed into the premises of the house of Senator Muhammed Ndume.

“The DPO led a team of policemen to arrest the trespasser where he had gone to receive treatment for injuries he sustained as a result of a mob action,” Isuku said.

The police spokesman said that investigation, however, revealed that the suspect was of unsound mind.

APC Blasts PDP Over Economic Criticism

The All Progressives Congress (APC) has described the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) statement on the nation’s economy as part of the opposition’s ploy to distract the Buhari administration from its onerous task of putting the nation on a sound footing.

In a statement issued in Lagos, on Monday, by its National Publicity Secretary, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, the party said the PDP’s statement was a litany of delusional self praise rather than a genuine concern about the nation’s well being.

“The question the PDP should ask itself is that if it had laid a solid foundation for the economy in its 16 years in charge, could such a foundation have given way in just three months of a new administration?

“If the PDP had been as fantastic as its statement had portrayed, it would still be the ruling, rather than the opposition party that it is now.

“It is therefore important for the PDP to concentrate its attention on re-making its tattered image rather than continuing to act as a desperate attention-seeking opposition,” it said
