BREAKING: Amaechi Storms SSS Office With El-Rufai in Abuja

The atmosphere at the SSS headquarters in Abuja, we have gathered, is tensed and all the parties in the showdown are sticking to their guns. Governor Rotimi Amaechi of Rivers State and Senator Chris Ngige are among the APC leaders who, in company of ex-Minister of the FCT, Mallam Nasir El-Rufai, appeared at the SSS office on Monday morning.

Governor Amaechi and others are being prevented from entering the office but they are resisting...

A source told us that a team of detectives have been assemble to question El-Rufai and that he is in good spirit, ready to answer their questions and his lawyer is said to be waiting to secure his release.

Amaechi was said to have told the SSS that they should not allow themselves to be used by the Presidency as the State Security Service is programmed by the law to always be neutral, no matter the situation.

The SSS can even arrest President Goodluck Jonathan on the orders of the Athorney Attorney-General of the Federation, but the way they are going now, it seems they only see wrongs in what the opposition says.
