The Benue State governor, Dr Gabriel Suswam, on Sunday, said that his aide de camp (ADC), DSP Dickson Pawa, was neither arrested nor detained by security operatives in the state.
Suswam made the clarification at the Government House, Makurdi, to debunk the rumour that his ADC was arrested, interrogated and detained by military men in Katsina Ala Local Government Area of the state for carrying arms.
”At no time was my ADC arrested or detained by military men,” he said.
He told journalists while reacting to the allegation that his aide was stopped by soldiers on his way to Harga, his village, to cast his vote and when his aide explained who he was, the soldiers authorised him to embark on his journey.
The governor stressed that the allegation levelled against his aide was an extension of what the opposition knew best to do.
