The Department of State Security (DSS) has asked spokesperson to former military president Gen. Ibrahim Babangida Mr. Kassim Afegbua to report again to its Abuja office today.
Afegbua’s lawyer Dr. Kayode Ajulo said his client was interrogated for hours by DSS operatives and directed to report at the Abuja headquarters of the agency “to conclude the chat” today.
Afegbua arrived at the DSS’ expansive complex near the Presidential Villa in Abuja just before 12 noon yesterday.
Yesterday evening, reporters’ wait near the DSS headquarters went unrewarded as Afegbua’s chat with DSS operatives became much longer than expected.
The lawyer had written a letter to the DSS Director-General, querying the unexplained nature of the chat invitation on Wednesday night.
The IBB spokesman was declared wanted by the police over a statement issued on behalf of Babangida calling on President Muhammadu Buhari not to seek re-election.
It was learnt that the police later apologised over the invitation.
