The Federal Government led by Buhari has declared that they are not interested in naming and shaming sponsors of Terrorism in Nigeria.
This was made known by the Special Adviser to President Buhari on Media and Publicity, Femi Adesina.
According to him, the government is more interested in ensuring that those found guilty will be brought to book.
Adesina disclosed this during a recent interview with Channels TV. He was asked if the president will address the recent move by the United Arab Emirates to place six Nigerians on the terror list. The Nigerians are six of 38 individuals whom the UAE suspects to be financiers of terrorism.
While responding, Adesina said the government will not name and shame such people.
“Naming and shaming will not be the motive. Naming and shaming won’t be the motive. Rather, bringing malefactors to justice would be it. Nigeria is not interested in naming and shaming sponsors of Terrorism. Rather, it wants to bring them to justice.
You see that the UAE had released some names and the AGF has responded saying that in due course, all these people will have their days in court. Rest assured that justice will have its way.” he said
He further disclosed that investigation on the issue is underway at different levels.
“Investigations are going on at different levels. It could be at the level of EFCC; it could be at the level of the National Intelligence Agency. Different security agencies would be working on it so that when those people eventually appear in court, there will be what the lawyers call a prima facie case against them.” he said
