Former Nigerian Attorney General Rearrested on Terrorism Allegations

Abubakar Malami, the former Attorney General of Nigeria, was rearrested by the Department of State Services (DSS) on terrorism-related allegations shortly after being released on bail from the Kuje Correctional Center in Abuja. The DSS revealed that there were several petitions against Malami bordering on terrorism financing, emphasizing the seriousness of the offenses under Nigerian and international law.

The DSS stated that no individual is above investigation, and standard inter-agency collaboration led to Malami's rearrest. This development occurred hours after his initial release following arraignment on corruption-related charges.
