The DSS has presented Gordon Obua, the detained former chief security officer (CSO) to former President Goodluck Jonathan to the press for for an impromptu press conference.
In an impromptu press conference at the DSS Headquarters in Abuja this afternoon, the Chief Security Officer (CSO) to former President Jonathan, Mr. Gordon Obua told Nigerians that he is hale and hearty and is being treated with dignity by the management and staff of Department of State Security Services (DSS).
There had been rumours that Obua, who had been detained since last week died after being tortured. But the man who looked composed and well kept said:
"I thank Nigerians and members of my family who have expressed very serious concern about my well being in the last six days. I want to use this medium to tell Nigerians and members of my family that I am hale and hearty.
"Nigerians should be assumed that DSS is a responsible organisation and I am sure that nothing adverse will happen to me once it is ascertained that I did nothing wrong", Obua stated.
When pressmen attempted to question him, Obua clarified "I am a serving staff of DSS and I have limitations regarding speaking with the press. I thank the Director General of DSS for the way that I have been treated so far."
