Nigeria’s secret police has reportedly arrested and detined Abbas Masanawa, Chief Executive Officer of Nigeria’s Incentive-Based Risk Sharing System for Agricultural Lending (NIRSAL).

It was gathered that the NIRSAL boss, alleged to have been sacked, is currently in the custody of the State Security Service over the ongoing investigation of alleged crime.

While the circumstances trailing his detention are still sketchy as of press time, Masanawa was reportedly previously arrested, released, and recently rearrested by the DSS.
