The Department of State Services (DSS) has confirmed that it questioned former Minister of Aviation, Femi Fani-Kayode over his recent allegations that some military officers met with the PDP Presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar to disrupt the 2023 general elections.
DSS in a press release on Tuesday said Fani-Kayode visited its National Headquarters, Abuja on 13th February, 2023.
DSS Spokesman, Dr. Peter Afunanya, said the invitation was in respect of an investigation of some of his allegations and insinuations relating to issues relevant to National Security.
He said “Chief Fani-Kayode faced a Panel which interviewed him on the subject matter. Afterwards, the Service granted him administrative bail and directed that he makes routine returns to the Office with effect from Wednesday, 15th February, 2023 till otherwise. The investigation, however, continues.
“Meanwhile, political parties and their media managers are advised to apply restraint in their utterances and public communication engagements prior to and after the general elections. This is to avoid heating up the polity and evoking tendencies that could lead to violent reactions as well as undermine peace and order.”
