DSS Invites Yusuf Datti Baba-Ahmed Over Alleged Inciteful Remarks by Ofunaofu(op): 11:34pm On Nov 28, 2025
The Department of State Services (DSS), on Friday, invited the founder of Baze University, Abuja, Senator Yusuf Datti Baba-Ahmed, for questioning for sustaining views perceived as inciting against the Nigerian State, a security source has disclosed.

LEADERSHIP learnt that there have been growing concerns over Baba-Ahmed’s recent public remarks on various media platforms, especially those bordering on his claims of a “constitutional crisis.

According to a security source on Friday night, A few days ago, Baba-Ahmed was on national television blaming the judiciary and the military for allowing the swearing-in of President Bola Tinubu and Vice President Kashim Shettima. He even went to the length of inciting the military that it was President Tinubu’s swearing-in that made it possible for them to look you in the face and call you ‘bloody fools’.”

Another security source explained: “His inflammatory comments carry undertones capable of heightening national tension particularly given the sensitivity of Nigeria’s current political climate. It is also disturbing, considering how similar narratives have contributed to instability in countries like Guinea-Bissau and other states.

“I believe the secret police is treating his comments with caution. It has nothing to do with politics, but the corporate existence of our nation could be threatened if such rhetoric is allowed to fester.

“The complacency by the judiciary and military in not stopping the inauguration of President Tinubu’s administration as he was quoted leaves much to be desired

“Such an invitation aligns with established protocols especially as his description of efforts to improve the security of the nation as a ‘joke’ could agitate public sentiment, weaken trust in state institutions.

“These sessions are not punitive; they are preventive, focused on clarifying intent, contextualising the remarks, and preventing the emergence of narratives that could unintentionally fuel unrest.”

Bandits, Gumi, and ter**st sympathizers are online daily making inciting comments that could lead to violence in Nigeria. Who has invited them for questioning?

President Tinubu is too cool with those that should have long been incarcerated.

Imagine the lawlessness from Yussuf Datti-Ahmed?

According to a security source on Friday night, “A few days ago, Baba-Ahmed was on national television blaming the judiciary and the military for allowing the swearing-in of President Bola Tinubu and Vice President Kashim Shettima. He even went to the length of inciting the military that it was President Tinubu’s swearing-in that made it possible for them to look you in the face and call you ‘bloody fools’.”
They allowed this loser to bite to the point where he felt anything goes.

He should be criminally charged to court.

Any civilian government that allows politicians to incite anarchy and invite military dictatorship, should blame itself when the military seize the opportunity to strike.

If I was President, this Datti-Ahmed will never taste freedom again until he is criminally convicted for treason.

O yeah? But Boko Haram, ISWAP, Fulani terrorists and the army officer who gave the order withdrawing soldiers from the school in Kebbi still haven't been apprehended? Have they not been threatening the corporate existence of Nigeria? This is over 14 years now and they've only gotten stronger.

If they have any verifiable intels that he is a sponsor of terrorism, I support your comment but if it's because of what he said alone, then the President and most of his cabinet members should first of all arrest themselves shocked

This bot no dey gree me insult people for here.

Wetin be the work of this DSS gan gan, their intelligence na zero, na Aboki be commanders for there?

For over 10 years, an FBI equivalent organization cannot hold and prosecute top terrorist financiers? Even the ones on the premises of power doing lots of sabotage cannot be fished out?
They should close down that organization.

That loser has been over ignored for too long to the point that he is feeling invincible and clearly calling for a military intervention.

Considering that there has been an alleged military coup in the offing that was neutralised, it is time to go hard on anarchists like him.

He is the one that has played into the hand of government, and it would be foolish if he his not put where he belongs now.

Remind us the parallel government that a state Governor Rotimi Amaechi was running as a PDP Governor while the same PDP held the Presidency of Nigeria?

Was it while the same Governor was prevented from accessing his own office by the state police commissioner Mbu?

Or was it with all the shenanigans that both first lady Patience Jonathan and minister of state Wicked Wike perpetrated to ensure the minority tried to impeach the majority at the state house of assembly and the Governor?

Or was this parallel government because Governor Amaechi was frustrated to the point where he had to abandon the PDP to join the newly formed APC, just because he would not surrender his authority as State Governor to do whatever was dictated to him by First Lady Patience Jonathan?

Pray tell, what actions by a Governor that was being severely humiliated by the federal government and his own party (PDP) and eventual former party (still PDP), could have been misconstrued by you as an act of parallel government against your beloved President Jonathan who could never stand up to the insecurity that plagued his regime, but had all the resources to ridicule a State Governor and his political opponents?
Re: DSS Invites Yusuf Datti Baba-Ahmed Over Alleged Inciteful Remarks by Abee79(m): 6:31am On Nov 29, 2025
My problem with DSS is that they seem to be doing selective justice (abi Na victimisation sef?). Bantits, kidnappers and terrorists are killing innocent Nigerians on a daily basis and displacing (and occupying) entire communities, while some Islamic clerics openly call for Jihad, but they gladly look away. You see them arresting people for voicing out against that injustice or making honest comments online.

DSS, I know you have the capacity to make Nigeria better by nipping insecurity at its roots before it manifests. Biko, help Nigeria 🙏

Tinubu has been too soft to some of these born to rule Fulani criminals. This guy should have been picked up and prosecuted for treason and insurrection a long time ago. But no, we keep handling them with kid gloves and they in turn keep growing wings.
