Terrorism: Nigeria’s DSS discovers military paraphernalia, foreign monies at Mamu’s residence

Nigeria’s State Security Service (SSS) also known as Department of State Services (DSS) has said that its operatives had carried out search on Tukur Mamu’s home and offices in Kaduna with many discoveries.

Confiance News gathered from the official website of DSS on Thursday.

“So far, appropriate security agencies have executed valid search warrants on Mamu’s residence and office. During the processes, incriminating materials including military accoutrements were recovered. Other items include large amounts in different currencies and denominations as well as financial transaction instruments. While further investigations continue, Mamu will, sure, have a day in,” Nigeria’s security agency stated.

Confiance News recalls that Mamu, who is the publisher ot Desert Herald, and self-appointed negotiator for the victims of the ill-fated Abuja-Kaduna train attack on March 17 this year, was picked up in Cairo, Egypt on September 6 and promptly transferred to Nigeria on September 7, 2022.

He was immediately taken from the Aminu Kano International Airport to Abuja and handed over to the DSS for custody.

Mamu is likely to he charged for terrorism and being accessory to kidnapping having been suspected to have collected huge ransom amounting to N2 billion from families of the train victims taken captives by terrorists.

He is likely to be charged to court to account for his roles in the collection and sharing of ransom with terrorists and how he got to know about the terrorists and their locations (The Witness).
