Sheikh Ahmed Tijjani Umar of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) has dismissed social media reports claiming he was detained by the Department of State Services (DSS), clarifying that he was merely invited for questioning and was subsequently released.
Speaking on the incident, the cleric said he cooperated fully with security officials and is currently safe and free.
“I am speaking today to correct the false report that is circulating. I was not detained by the DSS. I was invited for questioning. I cooperated fully and I was released. I am free, I am safe and I am well,” he said.
Umar appealed to supporters and residents of Kaduna State to remain calm and avoid actions that could disrupt peace in the state.
“I want to appeal to all our supporters and to all citizens of Kaduna State to remain calm, remain peaceful and remain law-abiding citizens. No one should take the law into his hands. No one should create disorder in the name of loyalty,” he stated.
The ADC cleric also urged patience over the situation involving former Kaduna State Governor, Nasir El-Rufai, asking the public to allow due process to take its course.
He further advised citizens dissatisfied with the current political system to pursue change through democratic means.
“To anyone dissatisfied with the current system, the answer is very simple: register, vote and choose better leadership when the time comes.
“Thank you all and may Allah protect our dear state, Kaduna State,” he added.
