A legal practitioner, Ekemini Udim, has expressed shocked about allegations linking a chieftain of the New Nigerian Peoples Party, NNPP, Rabi’u Kwankwaso, to terrorism financing.
Speaking on Channels Television’s ‘The Morning Brief’ on
Thursday, Udim said he had not heard Kwankwaso’s name being linked to
terrorism.
Kwankwaso has been targeted for sanctions by a legislation
introduced by the US Congress, over his alleged role in promulgating the Sharia
law.
Reacting, the legal practitioner said, “I’m surprised to see
Rabiu Kwankwaso’s name in that list. I think the US needs to give us more
clarifications.
“I have not really heard his name being bandied around
terrorism, but maybe America has better information than Nigeria has not had
over the years.
“Maybe the US is able to monitor activities of the former
governor and minister and they now think there’s need to make it clearer for
all of us in Nigeria to understand.”
