FOR the trio of Usman Danmallam, Nura Giwa and
Hussaini Monguno, what might have been a
private telephone conversation exchanged
amongst friends has kept them in the custody of
the Department of State Services (DSS) for more
than a week and may ultimately lead them to jail
if prosecuted and found guilty.
The trio, according to a representative of the
security agency who spoke to the media yesterday
in Abuja, had “perfected plans to blackmail the
Director General of the DSS, Lawal Daura that he
collected N4 billion from the Governors of Akwa
Ibom, Rivers, Abia and Taraba states in order to
influence the Supreme Court judgment in their
favour.
“They were also to misinform the President and
in fact, the Nigerian public that the DG had
acquired choice properties in Maitama and
Asokoro areas of Abuja. The overall objective was
to scare the DG and put him under pressure just
for the group to extort money from him to serve
their pecuniary interest.”
The DSS representative who briefed the press,
Abdullahi Garba, had refused to disclose his name
until journalists threatened not to report matter,
said two of the suspects were arrested on
February 17, 2016 at Unguwar Sarki in Kaduna
State, while Monguno was picked in Abuja.
