The publisher of an Ughelli based tabloid, Ughelli Times Magazine has been whisked by the Department of State Services, DSS to the Asaba head office of the service over an alleged libelous report against the Minister of State for Petroleum, Dr. Ibe Kachukwu.

The publisher, Daniel Ekuigbo who is also a member of the Urhobo Media Group, was said to have been arrested on Tuesday night at Ughelli by a team of DSS officials from Asaba.

Though detail of his arrest was sketchy as at the time of this report, a DSS source confirmed his arrest saying, “Yes, he is in our custody.”

Speaking further, the source said: “Though I can’t give you much detail on his arrest, it is not much of an issue as we just want to confirm some things from him.

“These issues include a publication against the Minister of State for Petroleum, Dr. Ibe Kachukwu among others I can’t divulge to you now, hence he was brought in for interrogation.”
