Lawmaker urges Buhari to name terrorist sponsors in NASS

Representative Ben Igbakpa (PDP-Delta) on Tuesday in Abuja challenged President Muhammadu Buhari to name the particular lawmaker sponsoring terrorism in the country.

He raised the motion under matter of privilege on the floor of the House in respect of the President 61st independence anniversary speech.

In his speech, the President reportedly alleged that a National Assembly member is sponsoring secessionists.

Igbakpa, narrating his experience since the President made the allegation, said that he could no longer gain access to some important places.

He added that people now suspect him as a possible financier of terrorists in the country, and urged the house to intervene and ask the President to name the sponsor.

He also urged the leadership of the House to liaise with the leadership of the Senate to meet the President in a bid to unravel the name of the lawmaker.

He also urged the President to immediately prosecute the lawmaker, adding that the President has the power to prosecute.
