Africa Press-Nigeria:<\/p>\n

A former Deputy Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), Obadiah Mailafia, has claimed his life is in danger.<\/p>\n

The Department of State Services (DSS) invited Mailafia in August, over his allegations that a Northern Governor is the leader of Boko Haram.<\/p>\n

DAILY POST recalls that after his second DSS invitation, the Criminal Investigation Unit of the Police in Abuja, asked him to appear before it.<\/p>\n

But Mailafia refused to honour the invitation and instead filed a lawsuit seeking a restraining order against his invitation by the police.<\/p>\n

Speaking to reporters in Jos, the Plateau State capital, after he was interrogated for a third time by the DSS, Mailafia said he has been getting threats to his life.<\/p>\n

\u201cI have indicated that I have reason to believe that my life has been in danger.<\/p>\n

\u201cI have no conclusive proof but I get threats, I get calls.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhere I was staying, on Thursday, I saw some strange people at the gate trying to break in. I jumped the fence and escaped because I don\u2019t know who they are,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
