The Department of States Services (DSS) has invited former Central Bank of Nigeria Deputy Governor, Obadiah Mailafia over comments he made.
In an interview on an Abuja-based radio station on Monday, Mailafia had said a governor from the north is one of the leaders of Boko Haram based In intelligence he got.
He further revealed that during the lockdown, the insurgents were moving and transporting arns and ammunition across the country, evident in the movement of aircraft even after restrictions were laid down.
“We have met with some of their high commanders, they have sat down with us not once, not twice,” he had said.
“They told us that one of the northern governors is the commander of Boko Haram in Nigeria. Boko Haram and the bandits are one and the same.
“During this lockdown their planes were moving up and down as if there was no lockdown.”
While confirming his invitation by the DSS on Tuesday, Mailafia said he is expected to be at the office of the secret police in Jos, Plateau state, on Wednesday.
“Yes, it is true,” the former CBN deputy governor said to The PUNCH.
“The DSS invited me to appear in their Jos office tomorrow by noon.”
