IPOB Exposes Nigerian Politicians Sponsoring Terrorism, Links to Boko Haram

IPOB has accused top Nigerian politicians of sponsoring terrorism in the country, alleging their involvement in bankrolling operations of Boko Haram and ISWAP. The group claimed to have evidence implicating a political figure and party in terrorist activities, referencing a Canadian court ruling that confirmed the political figure's role.

IPOB spokesperson Emma Powerful emphasized the complicity of the politician in the 2017 proscription of IPOB and highlighted a 2025 ruling in Canada linking Nigerian political parties to terrorism. The accusations shed light on the alleged ties between Nigerian politicians and terrorist groups, raising concerns about national security and political corruption.
