Ahmed Salkida, a Nigerian columnist pronounced needed by the Nigerian Army a few weeks prior and captured yesterday by operators of the Department of State Security (DSS), has been discharged, an abnormal state security source told SaharaReporters. Mr. Salkida was captured yesterday at Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport in Abuja as he touched base from the United Arab Emirates.


A security source told SaharaReporters that Mr. Salkida was extremely "helpful" for the duration of the time he was in the detainment guardianship of the DSS. The source included that Mr. Salkida had educated the DSS ahead of time that he wanted to come back to Nigeria after the Nigerian Army proclaimed him needed. The military had looked for the columnist, who is accepted to be in contact with a few pioneers of the Islamist dread gathering, Boko Haram, particularly regarding the gathering's late arrival of a video demonstrating some auxiliary school young ladies kidnapped in April 2014.

Mr. Salkida was discharged at 5:30 p.m. Nigerian time, and had purportedly gone to stay with a few companions in Abuja.
