Boko Haram: MTN and Forensic expert to testify against Senator Mohammed Ndume

The path has been cleared for the Federal Government to call two additional witnesses against Senator Aliyu Ndume, who is facing charges of sponsoring the violent Islamic fundamentalist sect, Boko Haram.

The proposed witnesses, according to the Federal Government, are the MTN and a forensic expert. Three prosecution witnesses had already testified in the case.

Justice Gabriel Kolawole, after dismissing Ndume’s opposition to the prosecution’s application on Tuesday, gave the Federal Government seven days to file its additional proof of evidence and serve same on the defence.

Ndume was arraigned on four counts of terrorism, after he was implicated by Konduga, who had since been convicted and sentenced.

The SSS said Mr. Ndume, who is from Borno State, the hotbed of the crisis, was constantly in touch with an alleged spokesperson of the group, Mohammed Konduga.

This is the right way to go about eradicating the menace called Boko Haram, cut off their sponsors.
