President Muhammadu Buhari, while delivering his Independence Day speech on Friday,  alledged that high-profile individuals, including a member of the national assembly, are sponsors of secessionist leaders like Sunday Igboho and Nnamdi Kanu.

“But going further to paragraph 33 of the address, Mr president, in his address which was widely publicised, carried by BBC, CNN and other media houses across the world, told the world that one of us is sponsoring terrorism.

“Mr speaker, that means 469 members of this national assembly are prime suspects.

“On that fateful day, I went to Akure to be part of the burial ceremony of our former colleague. On Saturday, I had to honour an invitation to Ghana for a wedding. Mr speaker, it will amaze you what I faced at the hands of Ghanaian officials.

“They kept me for about four hours, that they are trying to confirm something. I stayed at the airport for four hours, missed the wedding that I went there for and at the end of the day, one of them walked up to me and said ‘sir, we are sorry because there is an announcement in Nigeria that a member of parliament is sponsoring terrorism; we are out on red alert to ensure that no member of parliament from Nigeria comes here to hide or to cause trouble’.

“I had to come back home, dejected. I lost my respect and my privilege as a member of this chamber. They have been calling me all over the world. My friends have been telling me: ‘who among you is that person sponsoring terrorists?’”

He asked the leadership of the house to prevail on the president to name the serving lawmaker sponsoring terrorism as he claimed.
