  • Major Hamza Al-Mustapha, former security chief to the late Head of State General Sani Abacha, refuted claims made by ex-DSS operative Mr. Amachree.
  • Al-Mustapha described Amachree's account of Abacha's final moments as false.
  • The statement asserts that the operative's narrative about the former military ruler is untrue.

Major Hamza Al-Mustapha, who served as the Chief Security Officer to the late Head of State General Sani Abacha, has strongly refuted claims made by a former Department of State Services (DSS) operative, Mr. Amachree. Al-Mustapha dismissed the operative's account of Abacha's final moments as entirely false.

Al-Mustapha, speaking through Vanguard News, directly challenged the veracity of Amachree's statements. He asserted that the narrative presented by the former DSS operative regarding the circumstances surrounding the late military ruler's death is untrue. This public rebuttal aims to correct what Al-Mustapha perceives as misinformation about a significant historical figure.

The former security chief's statement serves as a direct contradiction to the claims made by Amachree, emphasizing that the operative's account is not factual. The post appeared first on Vanguard News.
