BREAKING: DSS Frees Salihu Tanko-Yakasai by fergie001(mod):
The State Security Service has freed Salihu Tanko-Yakasai, the former spokesman to governor of Kano State, Abdullahi Ganduje.

Mr Tanko-Yakasai’s elder brother, Umar, confirmed the development to DAILY NIGERIAN on Monday night.

“My brother has just been released by DSS. We are now driving home,” he said without further elaboration regarding the conditions of the bail.

The SSS admitted on Saturday that Mr Tanko-Yakasai was in their custody after mounting social media storm over the arrest.

The Kano State Director of the service, Alhassan Mohammed, earlier
on Saturday morning denied arresting Mr Tanko-Yakasai, describing the report as mere rumour.

But in a terse statement sent to DAILY NIGERIAN on Saturday night, spokesman for the service, Peter Afunanya, confirmed the general belief that the social media influencer was arrested by the service.

In the wake of the arrest, Mr Ganduje announced his sack over “unguarded utterances” and criticism against the ruling APC.

It can be recalled that the Kano State Governor, Abdullahi Ganduje, had suspended his Special Adviser on Media, Salihu Tanko-Yakasai, for criticising the President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari (retd) in October 2020.

He was reinstated about 18 days later.

Go and sin more...

Your criticism remains ill-timed And we all have our reservations for your criticism.

Because it is not lost on us that your boss who speaks through you is clearly not happy that he is been relegated because of 2023 projections going wrong..

DSS was right anyway in detaining you

If you understand how these things work, it means that having arrested and interrogated Salihu Tanko-Yakasai who is a Northerner and APC member, DSS is now justified morally and correct politically to go after Sunday Igboho or anybody for that matter.

We are tired of all this denial.

He would be silenced.
