The Federal Government through the office of the Attorney-General of the Federation (AGF) has arraigned a former terrorists’ negotiator, Tukur Mamu, on 10 counts bordering on terrorism financing, especially on the recent Abuja-Kaduna train attack.
Mamu was arraigned before Justice Inyang Ekwo on Tuesday, March 21, 2023. He, however, pleaded not guilty to all the counts and denied having allegiance to the terrorists.
He was arrested on September 6, 2022, on his way to Saudi Arabia for Lesser Hajj and was detained at Cairo International Airport before being repatriated to Nigeria.
He is alleged to have received $120,000 as ransom payments on behalf of the Boko Haram terrorist group. The monies were said to have been received from families of ho§tages kidnapped during the Abuja-Kaduna train attack.
He was also accused of exchanging voice note communications relating to the ho§tages with one Baba Adamu, a Boko Haram spokesperson.
