‘ISIS funding Boko Haram,’ President says

Buhari also called on financial institutions and security agencies to work together to track sponsors of terror groups.

 

Buhari also said that it is clear that the sect’s material resources are strong.

Mr. President, in a statement released by his media aide, Femi Adesina said ‘‘Terrorist activities always have financial sponsorship and this can be seen in their acquisition of weapons, their movements and other logistics.”

‘‘Here in Nigeria, we saw that Boko Haram had strong material resources and they had a close link to ISIL.

‘‘We need a whole cultural orientation in order to succeed against terrorism.”
