Ex-DSS Director Calls El-Rufai's Phone Tapping Claim Grave

In a recent interview, a former director of the Department of State Services (DSS) criticized the admission made by ex-Kaduna State Governor Nasir El-Rufai concerning the tapping of his phone by national security adviser Nuhu Ribadu. The director described the claim as "extremely grave," highlighting that it constitutes a serious breach of national security protocols.

He emphasized that such allegations should not be trivialized as mere political controversy and called for immediate action from security agencies in response to the situation. The comments reflect growing concerns over the integrity of national security measures and the implications of unauthorized surveillance on political figures in Nigeria.
