According
to the statement, preliminary investigations revealed that
Abdulharasheed Ahmadu Maigari conspired with four of his colleagues,
Solomon Inusa, Patrick Ishaya, George Mwatapwa Ibbi, and Peter Okoye to
carry out the attack. Maigari and Ibbi were arrested while the other
three are at still at large.
"Efforts are ongoing to apprehend those still at large. A total of
Sixty-Six Million Four Hundred and Thirty Seven Thousand, Four Hundred
and Forty-five Naira (N66,437,445.00) and Six Thousand Two Hundred
Dollars ($6,200) have so far been recovered, while efforts are being
made to recover the remaining amounts. It is to be noted that
security agencies now act in concert, thus the joint investigation
undertaken with the Police, Army and the DSS," the statement reads.
"This action of the Service is in line with the posture of the
current Administration and DSS management focus on professionalism,
transparency and accountability. Those so far arrested have been
suspended pending the completion of investigations.
"For the
avoidance of doubt, the Service wants to reiterate its commitment to the
basic ideals and principles as established by its forebears and will
not spare anyone found to be contravening the rules and regulations or
the laws of the land.
"We therefore encourage members of the
public with useful information that could lead to the arrest of those at
large to volunteer same to the Service or other security agency.
"The
DSS also wishes to use this opportunity to assure all law abiding
citizens of their safety and urge them to partner with the Service in
the smooth discharge of its responsibilities."
