I can’t be responsible for naming terror financiers in Nigeria – Ex-COAS, Buratai

‎Former Chief of Army Staff, Tukur Buratai, on Friday said he can’t be responsible for the naming of those financing terror.


‎Buratai explained that the Federal government and some of its agencies know why the names of these terrors have not been released.


‎He disclosed this while featuring on Channels Television’s Politics Today.


‎According to Buratai: “We over rely on the military and Army, everybody has its own responsibility, the government knows where the source came from; we have agencies that are responsible.


‎“You cannot say I should be responsible for naming the financiers of terror.


‎“It’s not just about mentioning names, those agencies know why the names are not released.


‎“Action should be taken, these individuals are still within society Today, and they are known.


‎“I take responsibility for certain things that are strictly the Nigerian Army’s responsibility.


‎“It’s government decision and not that of Army to rehabilitate repentant Boko Haram, the initial concept that we had was that we gave them a timeline to surrender in 2016 and if they surrender we gave them a free passage and hand them over to appropriate agencies to rehabilitate them.”
