The Department of State Services has invited 10 leaders of the All Progressives Congress for a meeting on Saturday at its Benin City office in Edo State.
Although the agenda of the meeting was not disclosed, it will not be unconnected to the September 19 Edo State Governorship Election.
The DSS in a letter dated August 20, 2020, with reference No 171/B/122, addressed to Tony Adun (Aka Kabaka) partly read, “I am directed to invite you to an important meeting with the State Director of Security.
“You are to come with the following persons: Osakpamwan Eriyo, National Chairman, RTEAN; Ehis Adams, APC Leader Oredo; Osaro Idahosa, APC Leader Ikpoba-Okha; Okunbor Roberts, APC Leader, Ovia South West LGA; Atarodo, APC member; Kingsley Amedo, APC member; Richard Obe, APC member; Osarobo Idehen, APC member; Dr Emma, APC member.
The letter indicated that the meeting would hold by 11 am at the DSS Headquarters, No 1 Court Road, GRA, Benin.
An aide to one of the invitees, when contacted on the phone, told The PUNCH that his boss received the invitation letter but refused to speak further on it.
“Yes, we received a letter like that, that is all I can say,” the aide, who craved anonymity, said.
