DSS describes outcome of investigations on Mamu, Kaduna train negotiator as mind-boggling

Recall that the negotiator, an aide to Islamic cleric, Sheik Gumi was arrested in Cairo, Egypt last week by Interpol at the request of the Nigerian government.

Mamu was taken into custody on arrival at Kano International Airport by the DSS.

Flowing a search at his office and residence, the DSS said that the military equipment, huge sums of money in different currencies and other incriminating materials were discovered.

Speaking, Gumi described his adie’s detention as an act of terrorism, he quipped that the DSS should either charge him to court or release him.

In its response, the DSS through the spoekesman, Peter Afunaya on Sunday said that the security outfit would not be distracted by ‘skewed utterances’

He therefore called on the public to await commencement of court proceedings.

His words, “The Department of State Services (DSS) has followed with keen observation, overzealous comments by sections of the public in view of issues relating to the arrest and investigation of Tukur Mamu.

“The Service wishes that it is not distracted with some of the skewed narratives pervading the media space.

“Instead,.it requests to be left alone to concentrate on the ongoing investigations, the outcomes of which have remained mind-boggling.

“Meanwhile, the Service will cease further comments on the subject matter since the court will determine its course.

“Consequently, the public is hereby enjoined to desist from making unguarded utterances’ and await the court proceedings,” he admonished.
