Abuja-Kaduna train hostage lead negotiator, Alhaji Tukur Mamu is in the facility of the Department of State Services (DSS) for questioning.

This was disclosed in a statement signed by the DSS spokesperson, Dr Peter Afunanya on Wednesday.

Recall that, Mr Mamu, who is the publisher of Desert Herald Newspaper in Kaduna was arrested and detained by the Egyptian police at the Cairo International Airport while awaiting a connecting flight to Saudi Arabia. He was later released and was flown back to Nigeria, Wednesday morning.

The DSS said “This is to confirm that Manu, as a person of interest, was intercepted by Nigeria’s foreign partners at Cairo, Egypt on 6th September, 2022 while on his way to Saudi Arabia. He has since been returned to the country, today, 7th September, 2022 and taken into the Service’s custody.

“The act followed a request by Nigeria’s Military, Law Enforcement and Intelligence Community to their foreign partners to bring back Manu to the country to answer critical questions on ongoing investigations relating to some security matters in parts of the country. The public may wish to note that the law will appropriately take its course”.
