The Nigeria Police Force has invited a former Deputy Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria, Dr. Obadiah Mailafia to its Abuja office on Monday. The police probe comes despite a separate investigation of the former CBN governor by the Department of State Services.
The DSS had last week invited Mailafia to its Jos office over comments he made during a radio interview wherein he stated that an unidentified northern governor was a Boko Haram commander.
Mailafia, who was the Presidential candidate of the African Democratic Congress in the last election, said he got the information from some former Boko Haram fighters.
In an invitation letter addressed to Mailafia, however, the police did not reveal the reason for the invitation.
Mailafia is currently a member of the Directing Staff of the National Institute for Policy and Strategic Studies, Kuru.
