DSS arrests man allegedly inciting military coup on social media

The Department of State Services (DSS) has arrested one Innocent Chukwuma in Oyigbo, Port Harcourt, Rivers State, for allegedly using his social media platform to call on the Nigerian military to overthrow the current government.

According to reports, DSS operatives traced Chukwuma’s online activities after monitoring posts in which he made inflammatory comments urging the armed forces to take unconstitutional action.

Posting on his “X” handle “@TheAgroman,” Chukwuma stated that a coup was needed in Nigeria and called on the military to “suspend the Nigerian government.”

He posted: “A coup in Nigeria is needed.

Dispose of APC, suspend the Nigerian Government, and join the AES. That is all we need now.

“It will happen eventually. Nigerians, the military needs your support now! Only them can save this country.

“The bastard in Aso Rock has basically sold this country to the West, and they run our intelligence apparatus. Only the military can reset this country. Support them,” Chukwuma posted.

A source disclosed that the suspect is cooperating with DSS investigators.
