- 6 XIV. The Plaintiff avers that he was a little bit relieved to know that he was arrested by the DSS personnel even though he didn’t know the offence he was arrested for. They took the Plaintiff into one of the rooms within the DSS Office Complex, seized his phone and asked him if he knows a man called Shola or if he knows anybody ever called Shola. XV. The Plaintiff avers that after thinking for a while, the Plaintiff told them that he knows one Shola whom he met in 2009 in the course of a business transaction with the Emir of Daddare, Musa Balarabe, a long time ago. They asked if he knows Shola’s house and he told them that the last time he went to Shola’s house was 3or 4 years ago. And that the last time he saw Shola briefly was when a friend, Best Mbang, invited him to Harmonia Hotel and when he entered the Hotel, he saw Shola passively sitting in the Restaurant. He greeted him and went ahead to discuss with Mbang. XVI. The Plaintiff says that he told the security operatives that he does not have dealings with Shola and does not even know why he was arrested. At that point they chained the Plaintiff’s hands and legs with handcuff and blindfolded him again. The Plaintiff was made to sit on the floor while the DSS officials left with a warning that they are coming back around 11Pm to take him to lead them to Shola’s residence. XVII. The Plaintiff avers that they came back around 2am in the morning and picked the Plaintiff to Abacha Road in Mararaba, Nasarawa State where Shola was staying. As they were going late in the night the DSS officials threatened the Plaintiff seriously that if he does not show them Shola’s residence, they will shoot his leg and leave him by the road side XVIII. The Plaintiff avers that he was scared and had to tell them that they should inquire about him from the Chief Security Detail to the Director General, DSS, that he is a friend and an in-law because he married from the Plaintiff’s place. That they should ask the Chief Detail if he is of a questionable character. XIX. The Plaintiff avers that in the car that night, one of the men asked the Plaintiff why he was impersonating the DSS. The Plaintiff told them he can’t do such a thing and has never done such and will never do so. The Plaintiff told them that he has a profession and that he loves what he is doing. That if he is interested in becoming a security personnel, he will do so but that he loves what he is doing.
