Alleged invitation by the Department of State Service to the Bishop of Sokoto Catholic Diocese Mathew Hassan Kukah has been debunked.
The Director Social Communication Catholic Diocese of Sokoto, Reverend Father Christopher Omotosho said no such invitation was extended to the man of God.
He asked members of the public to ignore the rumour.
”The news that the Bishop was summoned for questioning by the DSS regarding his Christmas message cannot be true because the Bishop is yet to receive either call or mail from the DSS.” Omotosho said.
Over the weekend, social media was agog with reports that the clergyman has been invited by the DSS over his comments about the Presidency. The Youth Wing of the Christians Association of Nigeria had threatened to mobilize Christian youths across the nation to accompany the bishop to the DSS Headquarters in Abuja.
