DSS Denies Arresting Activist Chido Onumah by Apeshy101(m): 10:42pm On Sep 30, 2019 |
A statement released by the Public Relations Officer, DSS National Headquarters, Abuja, Dr Peter Afunaya, has debunked claims that Dr Chido Onumah was arrested in Abuja on Sunday. The agency said Onumah was only engaged in an interaction during which an act of his capable of undermining public order and national security was explained to him. Read full statement made available to News9naija below; "The Department of State Service (DSS) wishes to make clarifications regarding media reports that Dr Chido Onumah was arrested by the Service. To set the records right, Onumah was never arrested by the Service. He was rather engaged in an interaction during which an act of his capable of undermining public order and national security was explained to him. On his arrival at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, Abuja, on 29th September, 2019, it was discovered that Onumah wore a T-shirt with WE ARE ALL BIAFRANS inscription on it. With credible intelligence that he might be a subject of mob attack if allowed to go into town in same cloth, the Service invited him and drew his attention to the implications of his probable (un)intended action. It was strongly believed that an attack on Onumah would have sparked ethno-religious reprisals with dire consequences for law and order and public safety in the country. He understood the issues and pledged not to engage in activities that may cause disaffection in Abuja and the country at large. He subsequently removed the cloth with the inciting symbols and inscriptions and agreed not to use it. The interaction between Onumah and the Service held in a convivial atmosphere. He appreciated the courtesies extended to him. Afterwards, the Servcie arranged for him to go back to his accommodation in town. It is hoped that this clarification has dispelled the erroneous claims and reportage that he was arrested. The Service acted within the confines of its mandate and only carried out its routine security duty that could have been discharged by a similar agency in any part of the world. It is not out of place for concerned security agencies to have sought clarification from a traveller concerning a subject of security interest. The DSS reaffirms its avowed commitment to the rule of law and protection of citizens and national critical assets. Peter Afunanya, Ph.D. Public Relations Officer Department of State Services National Headquarters, Abuja 29th September, 2019" https://www.news9naija.com.ng/2019/09/30/dss-denies-arresting-activist-chido-onumah/ |

The fear of Biafra “Inciting words”.....”we are all biafrans” Shouldn’t we be worried about those that may find that phrase inciting? Nothing scares some people like that name. It’s like a nightmare to some people. Anyway, Ozoemena! 17 Likes 2 Shares |

Salam19: Oga .. Have u ever read his article on We are all biafrans? I am a full blooded unapologetic Yoruba boy, but after going through his wonderful piece, I cannot but agreed with the way be scripted what the situation in the country is. Afterall, are we not all biafrans (in minds) with the way the country is? Read before attacking Onuoha. As for DSS, instead of doing what their founding ideals are, they have become tools of oppression in the hands of politicians. 16 Likes 2 Shares |

Captaintimex: No matter how elegantly scripted his piece may be, biafra remains synonumous with a history of bloodshed for the actualization of biafra. Was that agitation about a better Nigeria; No, because the civil war precipitated by a quest for ethnic domination or non-subjugation. So, there is no way that history can serve as a basis to pontificate on some lofty ideals of 'we are all biafrans' to birth a new Nigeria or something. Even the recent biafra agitation is more a rogue agenda than being some well articulated thought. 2 Likes 1 Share |
