Fresh details emerged on Monday night over the airport encounter between the Department of State Services, DSS, and Prof. Okey Ndibe, with a source familiar with the matter dismissing reports that the renowned writer was arrested or detained and insisting that he left the airport less than 30 minutes after a routine security engagement.
The account challenges earlier claims that Ndibe was detained by the DSS, indicating instead that the encounter was linked to an existing watch-list record and formed part of an ongoing review process within the agency.
