DSS bows to pressure, releases eight Igboho’s aides - Punch NewspapersThe most widely read newspaper in Nigeria A government that specializes in breaking laws and abusing human rights, who will sue the DSS for the unjust murder of the 2 associates ? If you ask me, I will insist the ethnic centered DSS kept them strategically to string every fiber of their being with fear. Truth be told, they care less about pressure from anybody. It is a win for the minions using the DSS! So they agree this was a useless and futile operation in the first place? What happens about the lives of the two people they wasted that night? What about the countless people still in detention with buhari's lame DSS? What about Nnamdi Kanu?!
