According to a report of The Trent online newspaper , Obua died hours ago in Yellow House, the National Headquarters of the DSS in Abuja, where he had been detained since Thursday, July 16, 2015.
An insider source at the DSS Headquarters, however, denied the story saying : “The man is not dead but in our custody.”
If the reports of his death were to be true, Obua was arrested when he honoured an invitation by the DSS and had been in solitary confinement until his death. Obua, who was being detained by the DSS in an underground dungeon for undisclosed reasons was being denied access to his lawyers, family, and his doctors on the orders of the new Director General of the DSS, Lawal Daura. The DSS (also called SSS) serves as Nigeria’s secret police.
