“I believed it wouldn’t be anything different from the last encounter with DSS, which was purely interactive,” he said.

Recall that the former Deputy Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria, CBN, had alleged that a northern governor was the Commander of Boko Haram.

He also alleged that Boko Haram insurgents were plotting civil war in 2022.

In response to his allegation, DSS had invited him for questioning which he honored.

However, speaking after his interrogation, he declared that he stood by his earlier revelations on Boko Haram.
