​Breaking: DSS Arrests, Delivers to ICPC, ex- Science and Technology Minister, Uche Nnaji

By Samuel Itsede

​Operatives of the Department of State Services (DSS), on Wednesday morning, arrested former Minister of Science and Technology, Uche Nnaji, at the Akanu Ibiam International Airport, Enugu, as he made to board a private jet to Abuja.

​Security sources said Nnaji, who resigned last October under controversial circumstances, was arrested by DSS officers and later handed over to officers of the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences (ICPC), in Enugu.

According to the sources, the ICPC had extended several invitations to the former minister following petitions on how he managed his Ministry, and therefore contacted the DSS to help track and arrest him.
