Ibom Focus brings to you Names Of 15 Top Companies Sponsoring Boko Haram In Nigeria
The Cabinet of the United Arab Emirate (UAE) revealed a damning list of sponsors of Boko Haram in Nigeria, a terror group that has killed close to 50,000 Nigerians and displaced more than half of the population in most part of the North-East states, most especially Borno State since it began its operation close to two decades.
In Resolution No 83 of 2021, 38 people and 15 companies appeared on the Local Terrorist List complementing the efforts of UAE at fighting terrorism across the world.
Highlight Efforts of UAE At Exposing Terror Sponsor In 2016, the country collaborated with the Treasury Department of the United States to expose one of the foreign exchange companies that funded al-Qaida in the Arabian Peninsula.
Today, the United States, in close partnership with the United Arab Emirates (UAE), took action to disrupt the operations and support networks of al-Qaida in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP). Specifically, Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) designated the Al Omgy and Brothers Money Exchange (Al Omgy Exchange) and the company’s two owners, a statement by the U.S Treasury Department says.

Borno state is the worst hit by the activities of Boko Haram, Yobe, Adamawa, and others are also affected. Recall that in 2020, the late Chadian leader Idriss Déby accused Nigeria of releasing captured Boko Haram fighters. He was killed on April 19, 2021.
How Committed Is Buhari’s Government In Exposing Boko Haram Sponsors?
The commitment of President Muhammadu Buhari at fighting and exposing the sponsor of the killer group is zigzag. It’s very difficult to know the direction in which the Buhari-led government is headed.
In 2020, the president approved a special operation comprising Defence Intelligence Agency (DIA), the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), Nigerian Financial Intelligence Unit (NFIU), and the Department of State Services (DSS) to unravel the financial heavyweights supporting the terror financially. And by May 2020, the operation arrested 400 persons and submitted their findings to the president.
They were reportedly arrested in several cities across the country including Kano, Abuja, Borno, Sokoto, Lagos, Adamawa, Zamfara, and Kaduna. Since the arrest, nothing has been heard from the president except the regular announcement of granting amnesty to some unknown terrorists.
The silence of the president prompted the law firm of Femi Falana, on August 3, 2021, to request that the Attorney-General of the Federation (AGF) and Minister of Justice, Abubakar Malami, to provide information on the charges brought against the 400 persons who were indicted and arrested. Again, nothing has been heard from the presidency.
Authorities in the United States had also offered to assist Nigeria to expose the sponsors of the killer group, but at the time of publication, the Buhari-led government was yet to accept the offer. Judging from the body language of the president, who is the Commander-In-Chief of the Armed Forces, Nigeria isn’t ready to expose the sponsors of those who have killed thousands of innocent Nigerians.
