The Digest:

The Department of State Services (DSS) has invited Senator Yusuf Datti Baba-Ahmed for questioning over remarks deemed inflammatory against the Nigerian state. According to Leadership, the founder of Baze University is under scrutiny for sustained media comments, particularly his claims of a "constitutional crisis" and criticism of President Tinubu's swearing-in.

Key Points:
  • DSS invited Senator Baba-Ahmed for questioning on Friday
  • Security sources cited his media remarks on "constitutional crisis."
  • He allegedly blamed the judiciary/military for permitting Tinubu's inauguration
  • Comments described as capable of "heightening national tension."
  • DSS is treating remarks as a preventive measure against unrest
  • Session aims to clarify intent, not punitive action
  • Source referenced similar narratives, causing instability in other nations
When public discourse brushes against national stability, the line between political expression and collective security becomes a storm in itself.
