The former Chief of army Gen. Ihejirika have been arrested by DSS

The Department of State Services (DSS) has reportedly picked former Chief of Army Staff (COAS) Lieutenant-General Azubuike Ihejirika (rtd).

The former army chief was reportedly arrested last night, June 21 at his residence in Maitama, Abuja.

His arrest might not be unconnected with misappropriation of the arms funds under former national security adviser, Col. Sambo Dasuki.

Recall that an Australian Negotiator, Dr Stephen Davis had disclosed that former governor of Borno State, Modu Sheriff and former Chief of Army Staff, General Onyeabo Azubuike Ihejirika were Boko Haram sponsors.

The secret police is yet to confirm this development.

Meanwhile, analysts has it that there is a plot to clampdown and also to decimate the military officers from the old eastern Nigeria who have been the major victims of sack in the country's military institution.
