Daily Trust gathered that after raiding his house, they also went to his office in Kaduna where freed victims of the Abuja-Kaduna train attack always converged before reuniting with their families.

DSS security sources said Mamu was arrested for his alleged involvement in collecting ransom and taking same to terrorists in exchange for kidnapped victims.

In a statement, DSS Spokesman, Peter Afunanya, confirmed Mamu’s arrest, saying the agency was grilling him over security issues.
