the Department of State Security (DSS) invited and grilled Kaduna-based Islamic cleric, Sheikh Dr Ahmad Abubakar Gumi, over the recent allegation he leveled against the military, Police and other security personnel.

Asked if he has a secret deal with the bandits, he said everything he does is recorded and done in the open, even as he maintained that he has not done anything wrong.

“The Army spokesman without listening just issued a statement. I am not sure he spoke with the hierarchy of the Army. The DSS did not invite me,” he asserted. He therefore urged the military and Arise TV to apologize to the cleric and retract their statements against him or else he will seek legal action.

According to him, “So, he has been interacting even with the highest authorities of the Army even recently in Kaduna when they came for an event. “There is nothing like arrest at all. I think that should be the issue of concern, there is no arrest. On the issue of invitation, like I said, he was in the SSS office yesterday for about 15 minutes. It was a direct contact between him and the state director of DSS and nothing more.”Spokesperson of the secret police, Dr Afunaya, did not say whether Gumi honoured the agency’s invitation or not, just as he did not disclose what transpired during the encounter with the cleric.
