Lawyer asks DSS, ONSA to probe el-Rufai over alleged tapping of Ribadu’s phone

Pelumi Olajengbesi, a lawyer, has asked Department of State Services (DSS) and the Office of the National Security Adviser (ONSA) to investigate Nasir el-Rufai, the former Kaduna governor, over the “public admission” that he “procured” the tapping and recording of the telephone conversations of Nuhu Ribadu, the NSA.

In an interview on Arise Television’s Prime Time, said “someone tapped” Ribadu’s phone, allowing him to listen to a conversation where the NSA “ordered” his arrest.

Olajengbesi, in a statement on Sunday, said that it is not a “matter of political drama or public banter”.

“It is, in substance, an allegation of a grave criminal enterprise which strikes directly at the heart of Nigeria’s national security architecture and the integrity of the Nigerian State,” the lawyer said.
