Mamu will have a day in court, says DSS

The Department of State Services confirmed on Thursday that appropriate security agencies have executed valid search warrants on the residence and office of Tukur Mamu.

Mamu, the Kaduna-based publisher was arrested on Tuesday by security operatives in Cairo, Egypt and deported to Nigeria on Wednesday.

The Public Relations Officer of the DSS, Peter Afunanya, said in statement on Thursday that “During the processes, incriminating materials including military accoutrements were recovered. Other items include large amounts in different currencies and denominations as well as financial transaction instruments. While further investigations continue, Mamu will, sure, have a day in court.”
