The Department of State Services (DSS) has denied torturing or detaining President Muhammadu Buhari’s driver, Sai’du Afaka to death.
Afaka, the official driver of President Buhari, was said to have died after a prolonged illness.
DSS in a statement issued on Wednesday by its spokesman, Dr Peter Afunanya, dismissed a media report suggesting that the late driver was arrested.
The secret police said it did not engage in torturing of suspects and asked the public to “disregard the fake news spewed by the online platform.”
“While the said driver was never arrested or detained by the Service, it is a known fact that it does not torture suspects. Its suspect handling method is usually in compliance with the tenets of criminal justice administration system and democracy,” he said.
