DSS swooped in: On his arrival at the Mallam Aminu Kano International Airport in Kano on Wednesday afternoon, Mamu was re-arrested by the DDS operatives and was immediately taken into custody.

DSS searches Mamu's house: Meanwhile, the DSS spokesman, Peter Afunanya, has revealed that security agencies who carried out searches on Mamu's house and office found incriminating materials enough to charge the publisher to court.

Afunanya's word: ”So far, appropriate security agencies have executed valid search warrants on Mamu’s residence and office. During the processes, incriminating materials including military accoutrements were recovered.

”Other items include large amounts in different currencies and denominations as well as financial transaction instruments. While further investigations continue, Mamu will, sure, have a day in court."
