Former Speaker of the House of Representatives, Ghali Umar Na’aba, has been invited by the Department of State Services (DSS) for questioning.
Details of the invitation scheduled for Monday in Abuja were not clear as at press time.
It was however gathered that it may not be unconnected with his recent interview on Channels Television on Thursday regarding the agenda to bring about a new Nigeria that works for all.
Na’aba and former presidential candidate and founder of the Lagos Business School, Prof. Pat Utomi on July 7 formed NCFront, a new political movement.
Na’aba’s invitation by the DSS was contained in a statement by NCFront Head (Public Affairs Bureau) and former presidential candidate of the National Conscience Party, Dr. Yunusa Tanko, entitled: “News Flash: DSS Invites NCFront leader and former Speaker, Ghali Umar Na’aba.”
Tanko’s statement read in part; “Distinguished Compatriots! Please be notified that the DSS on Friday sent an invitation to NCFront Co-Chair and former Speaker of (the House of Representatives) Nigeria, Rt Hon. Ghali Umar Na’aba after his very profound interview on Channels Television on Thursday in regard to the agenda of the NCFront to bring about a new Nigeria.
“However, our leader, Ghali Umar Na’aba has decided to honour the DSS invitation and therefore shall be visiting the DSS Headquarters in Abuja on Monday at 12noon.
