Ali Modu Sheriff Denies Sponsoring Boko Haram

Former Governor of Borno State, Senator Ali Modu Sheriff, has denied sponsoring the Boko Haram sect and threatened to sue the Australian negotiator, Mr Stephen Davis, who was reported to have linked him to the Boko Haram. Senator Sheriff, at a press conference on Wednesday in Abuja, said that the fact that one of his commissioners was identified as a Boko Haram member doesn’t make him one.
