The Minister of Interior, Olubunmi Tunji-Ojo, has ordered the Controller-General of the Nigerian Correctional Service (NCoS), Haliru Nababa, to investigate an allegation against personnel of the service
Nigeria’s Chief of Defence Staff, Gen. Chris Musa, had accused some NCoS personnel of conniving with inmates to finance the operations of terrorists.
The CDS at the House of Representatives on Tuesday claimed that some arrested Boko Haram terrorists could plan operations out in the field and pass funds across.
In the wake of the allegation, the minister condemned the unpatriotic act by the personnel and vowed that anyone found capable would be brought to book.
“The minister has called for a speedy investigation into the matter, noting that any officer culpable or complicit of sabotaging the Nigerian Correctional Facility, and by extension the security of the country, shall face the full wrath of the law,” a Thursday statement by his media aide, Alao Babatunde, read.
