SSS quiz ex-gov Shekarau

ANPP presidential candidate, Ibrahim Shekarau

The SSS reportedly quizzed former Governor Shekarau over his alleged involvement in  sponsoring Boko Haram just as his spokesman, Sule Yaú Sule, said the All Nigeria Peoples Party (ANPP) 2011 presidential flagbearer was not under arrest, contrary to online reports.
Shekarau was invited to the Abuja headquarters of the SSS and questioned for several hours on what he knew about the funding and membership of the sect, which has claimed responsibility for series of bomb and gun attacks, leading to the death of about 1000 persons in various parts of Northern Nigeria.

As learnt, the security agency allowed him to go after the interrogation but informed him that he would be re-invited for further questioning if considered necessary  as the allegations against him were alleged to be weighty.
It was gathered that Malam Shekarau denied any involvement with Boko Haram, saying that there was peace during his tenure because he ran a government where every segment was carried along.
Shekarau had said at the beginning of the week that his successor, Alhaji Rabiu Kwakwanso, was to blame for the deadly attacks on Kano by Boko Haram, for dismantling, among others, his security arrangement in the state, which ensured peace among people of various religious and ethnic divide.
