According to the Department of State Services (DSS), the results of its investigation into Desert Herald publisher, Tukur Mamu's case is mind-boggling.

The service responded to Sheikh Ahmad Gumi's comments about Kaduna-based Islamic clergymen, and said that it would not be distracted.

Remember that Gumi had made an accusation of the DSS for terrorism and asked the secret police to release Mamu who is his media consultant or to bring him before the court.

Peter Afunanya, spokesperson for DSS, stated that the service should be allowed to fulfill its duties. He asked that the public wait until the court proceedings started.

The statement was as follows:

“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.”

Nice result
