BREAKING: DSS ARREST MR. AGABA IDU FIDEL , A SUSPENDED NATCOM OFFICIAL FEW DAYS AFTER DECLARING HIMSELF ACTING DG OF NATCOM
Nigeria, May 22, 2024 - In a significant
development, Mr. Agaba Idu Fidel, a suspended staff member of NATCOM, has been
apprehended and detained by the Department of State Services (DSS) on
Wednesday, May 22, 2024. The arrest follows allegations of fraud,
impersonation, and job racketeering.
Mr. Agaba Idu Fidel's deceptive
actions came to light when he appeared on national television, falsely claiming
a vote of no confidence on Adegbenro and asserting his takeover of the
leadership of NATCOM in the absence of Amb. Dr. Adegbenro. Prior to this
incident, Agaba Idu had been operating as the 'Interim Director General' of
NATCOM, disregarding the authority of the Acting Director General, Dr.
Adegbenro. His blatant disregard for the organization's integrity and his
intent to defraud the public have been evident.
It has been uncovered that Agaba
Idu and his accomplices have defrauded numerous Nigerians through the issuance
of fake employment letters, never sanctioned by the Acting DG. Consequently, a
criminal petition has been filed against him with the X-Squad Unit of the
Nigeria Police Force CID, with ongoing investigations.
The apprehension of Agaba Idu marks
a significant stride in purging the organization of nefarious elements who
tarnish not only the image of the civil donor security agency but also that of
the Nigerian state. We implore the public, especially media houses, to exercise
diligence in verifying the authenticity of broadcasts or publications before
dissemination.
We encourage individuals affected
by Agaba Idu's illicit activities to come forward and share their experiences.
As the DSS continues its investigation, further details regarding his unlawful
and fraudulent conduct are expected to surface.
Signed: Management
