The Federal Government will today arraign Mr. Tukur Mamu, a terrorist negotiator and a media aide to Sheikh Ahmad Gumi, on a 10-count charge bordering on terrorism financing among others.
Mamu, prosecuted by the office of the Attorney-General of the Federation (AGF), will be arraigned before Justice Inyang Ekwo of a Federal High Court, in Abuja.
Justice Nkeonye Maha had, on Sept. 13, 2022, given the Department of State Services (DSS) a go-ahead to detain the terrorists’ negotiator for 60 days.
This, according to the court, will enable DSS to conclude its investigation on Mamu, who led the negotiation with the terrorists for the release of the Abuja-Kaduna train passengers kidnapped in March 2022.
The charge was signed by the Director of Public Prosecution of the Federation, Mr. M.B. Abubakar.
