DSS Denying Us Access To Abaribe, Lawyer Cries Out

Lawyer to Senator Enyinnaya Abaribe, the detained member of the National Assembly, Chukwuma-Machukwu Ume (SAN), has said all efforts by the family, his physician and himself to see Abaribe had been denied by security operatives.

Recall that Abaribe was arrested by operatives of the Department of States Services, DSS, in Abuja on Friday.

Speaking with This Day on Sunday, Ume said if he is denied access by Monday (today), he might have to take another line of action.

“We have made all attempts through official channels for his doctor, family members and myself to see him and up till this moment after visiting the DSS headquarters in Abuja to look for him we still don’t have any information about him since the security people left with him at about 11.30pm after searching his house on Friday,” he said.

“If by Monday we don’t have any information about him or access to him and after meeting with my client’s family, we’ll then determine the next step to take.”
