Southern Kaduna People Condemn Invitation Of Mailafia By Security Agencies

The Southern Kaduna Peoples Union (SOKAPU) has expressed concern on the continuous invitation of the former presidential candidate of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), Dr Obadiah Mailafia, to the Plateau State office of the Department of State Service (DSS).
Mailafia has reportedly been invited by the service to appear before it, and has been requested to appear again today, for another round of questioning.
The union noted that there are several instances where security agents have developed cold feet in inviting top officials for a chat with a view to staving off a further bloodbath.
“Why has it remained impossible for DSS to invite MACBAN officials who had always claimed responsibility for attacks, claiming such attacks as revenge or reprisals?” SOKAPU asked.
In a statement issued by the SOKAPU National President, Jonathan Asake and made available to newsmen, yesterday, the union said, “We are worried that this is the third time that the nation’s secret police is inviting Obadiah to appear in its Jos office over a radio interview he granted. It is now undoubtedly obvious that these series of summons are aimed at not only intimidating the former deputy governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) but also throwing him into an abyss of frightening uncertainties in a bid to force him into silence.”
