Gov Yusuf Commends DSS Over Rescue of Kibiya LG Scribe

Kano State Governor, Alhaji Abba Kabir Yusuf, has commended the Department of State Services (DSS) for its swift and professional response leading to the successful rescue of the Administrative Secretary of Kibiya Local Government Area, Alhaji Hamza Durya, who was recently abducted.

This was contained in a statement signed by the governor’s spokesperson, Sunusi Bature Dawakin Tofa on Wednesday.

The victim was abducted at his residence in Durya village, Kibiya Local Government Area, an incident that triggered immediate concern and response from security agencies across the state.

Following the development, security operatives were promptly mobilised to ensure the safe rescue of the victim and the arrest of those responsible for the act.

In a swift and well-coordinated operation, operatives of the DSS Kano State Command successfully rescued Alhaji Hamza Durya unhurt.

The operation also led to the arrest of two suspected kidnappers, who sustained injuries during the encounter with security operatives.

Governor Yusuf described the rescue as a significant breakthrough and a clear demonstration of the effectiveness of the state’s security architecture.

He commended the DSS for their prompt action, professionalism, and dedication to duty, noting that their efforts have further strengthened public confidence in security agencies.

The Governor reiterated his administration’s commitment to supporting security agencies through the provision of necessary logistics and resources to enhance their operational efficiency.

He also reassured residents of Kano State of the government’s unwavering commitment to protecting lives and property across all parts of the state.

Governor Yusuf urged members of the public to remain vigilant and to cooperate with security agencies by providing timely and useful information on suspicious activities.

The Kano State Government reaffirmed its resolve to continue working closely with all relevant stakeholders to ensure lasting peace and security in the state.

SWAN Disowns Illegal Lagos Election, Petitions IGP, DSS Over Misuse of Security Personnel

...Suspended Members Engaging Thugs, Creating Confusion

The National Executive Council (NEC) of the Sports Writers Association of Nigeria (SWAN) has strongly disowned and condemned the purported election set to be organised in Lagos by suspended members of the association, describing it as illegal, null and void, and a deliberate act of sabotage against the integrity of the body.

The NEC said the only intention of the suspended members of the association is to create confusion, wondering why they leverage the use of thugs to create confusion while colluding with illegal security operatives.

In a firm resolution reached by the NEC and endorsed by the National Secretariat, SWAN reaffirmed that Ms. Olatutu Oladunni and Mr. Bello Omotunde, former Chairperson and Secretary of the Lagos Chapter respectively, remain indefinitely suspended from all activities and structures of the association.

The association has consequently petitioned the Inspector-General of Police (IGP) and the Director-General of the Department of State Services (DSS), drawing attention to what it described as a dangerous pattern of intimidation, impersonation, and misuse of security operatives by the suspended duo to disrupt peace within the Lagos sporting and journalistic community.

In the petition signed by SWAN National President, Mr. Isaiah Benjamin, and Secretary-General, Amb. Ikenna Okonkwo, the association said the suspended officials are attempting to stage an unauthorised election in Lagos on Thursday, October 9, 2025, despite prior notification of their suspension to both the Lagos State Police Command and the DSS Directorate.

SWAN recalled that during the Lagos SWAN Congress held on September 17, 2025, Ms. Oladunni mobilised more than eleven (11) police vehicles and armed operatives to a peaceful gathering of sports journalists — describing the act as “a brazen show of force, abuse of privilege, and a deliberate attempt to intimidate members.

“The so-called Lagos election is not only illegal but also an affront to the authority of the National Executive Council,” the NEC resolution stated. “The individuals behind this plot have no mandate or legitimacy to act in the name of SWAN. Their continued defiance constitutes gross misconduct and will attract further disciplinary measures.”

The association warned that any security officer or agency that lends support to the illegitimate exercise would be aiding an unlawful activity and undermining the association’s recognised constitutional order.

SWAN therefore, urged the IGP and DG DSS to restrain the suspended officials, maintain neutrality, and prevent any misuse of security institutions in matters internal to professional associations.

Reaffirming its authority, the NEC through the National Secretariat, reserves the power to supervise or approve elections in state chapters, stressing that any activity outside that structure “is null, void, and of no effect whatsoever.”

"The NEC of SWAN stands firm in defending the unity, credibility, and sanctity of the association,” the statement added. “We will not permit any act of indiscipline, impersonation, or external interference that threatens our stability and professional integrity.”

The association further assured all members nationwide of its commitment to due process, accountability, and the protection of journalists’ rights, urging them to disregard the actions of the suspended individuals and remain guided by the decisions of the National Executive Council.
