The Department of State Services has denied arresting the ‘former’ Media Aide to Governor Ganduje of Kano State, Salihu Tanko-Yakasai over his comments against the government of President Muhammadu Buhari and APC.

WITHIN NIGERIA recalls that Salihu Tanko-Yakasai called on the President Muhammadu Buhari’s government to either deal with bandits in the country or resign.

A report then emerged on Saturday, February 27, that he has been arrested by the DSS.

However, the DSS State Director, Muhammad Alhassan denied arresting him as he said; “we have not arrested or even invited Salihu, don’t forget he is our friend, sometimes, he advises us on issues of critical Security situations in Kano”.
