I’ve not been invited by DSS – Kukah

0 311

THE Bishop of Sokoto Catholic Diocese, Mathew Kukah, has denied being invited for questioning by the Department of State Services.

The cleric was reported to have been summoned by the secret police over his criticism of President Muhammadu Buahri.

In his Christmas Day message, Kukah had criticised President Buhari and other Northern leaders over rising cases of kidnapping and killing in the region.

Last weekend, the media space was awash with reports that the Bishop had been invited by the DSS, attracting outcries from Civil Society Organisations and religious leaders alike.

But in reaction through his spokesperson, Reverend Christopher Omotosho, today, Kukah rubbished the claims.

Omotosho described it as untrue and encouraged members of the public to ignore it.

“The news that the Bishop was summoned for questioning by the DSS regarding his Christmas message cannot be true because the Bishop is yet to receive either call or mail from the DSS,” he said.
