The State Security Service (SSS) has released a Yobe man, Ya’u Mohammed, after investigations reportedly showed he had no connection with any criminal activity.
The agency also gave him ₦2 million to support his reintegration and help him establish a means of livelihood after his detention.
Mr Mohammed, a resident of Gashua in Bade Local Government Area of Yobe State, was handed over to the Yobe State Government through the governor’s Special Adviser on Security Matters, Dahiru Abdulsalam, a retired brigadier general.
Mr Abdulsalam disclosed this during a visit to the SSS command headquarters in Damaturu, the Yobe State capital.
He said his visit was to ascertain the circumstances surrounding the detention and eventual release of the young man.
