The Department of State Services (DSS) has reportedly released Nigeria’s former Minister of Aviation, Femi Fani-Kayode, from its custody after six hours of grilling.

CityNews Nigeria  reports that the All Progressives Congress (APC) chieftain was invited for interrogation on Monday morning following his allegation that certain politicians are collaborating with the military high command in preparation for a possible coup.

Fani-Kayode had alleged that the PDP presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, was secretly meeting with Army Generals to sabotage the forthcoming general elections.
