Operatives of the Department of State Service on
Friday arrested the former Governor of Bayelsa State,
Mr. Timipre Sylva, in Abuja over undisclosed
offences.
The spokesperson for the DSS, Marilyn Ogar,
however, denied knowledge of the arrest when she
was contacted for confirmation.
“Why would he (Sylvia) be picked up? I am in the
office, I don’t have such information with me,” she
said on the telephone.
National Publicity Secretary of the All Progressives
Congress, Lai Mohammed, however, confirmed the
arrest, promising to issue a statement on Sylva’s
arrest soon.
