USAID’s Operations Must Be Investigated After Terrorism Financing Allegation – Ali Ndume

The lawmaker representing Borno South Senatorial District in the National Assembly, Ali Ndume has come out to say that the operations of the United States Agency for International Development in Nigeria is suspicious.

He recently had his say during an appearance on Arise News programme, and Nigerians have been reacting.

According to him, Scott Perry alleging that USAID has been funding Boko Haram might have some substance, especially because it is coming at a time when the Chief of Defence Staff, General Christopher Musa has also warned that Boko Haram terrorists are being trained and funded by international organisations.

He added that the operations of the US agency should be thoroughly investigated because it is the right thing to do.

His words, “They come under the pretense of helping when you are in dire need so you don’t have the right to question any suspicions. Stopping their funding is our opportunity to investigate.

Security agencies or the federal government do not have the backing or right to question the activities of international organisations.”

WOW.
