Embattled former chairman of the Park Management System (PMS) in Oyo State, Mukaila Lamidi, popularly known as Auxiliary, has been arrested by men of the State Security Service (SSS), Nigeria’s intelligence agency.

Multiple sources confirmed that Mr Lamidi was picked up in Ibadan at about 4 p.m. on Tuesday.

 

Though the reason for his arrest is still unclear, PREMIUM TIMES learnt that it might not be unconnected with some comments he made during an interview he granted on a YouTube channel a few days ago.

 

In the said interview, he made allusions on a wide range of issues to the state governor, Seyi Makinde and some high-ranking government officials.

 

Efforts to seek further clarification on the arrest from government representatives, including the Special Adviser on Security Matters to the governor, Fatai Owoseni, were unsuccessful.

 

Mr Lamidi was arrested by the administration of the late Abiola Ajimobi in 2014. He was jailed in 2016 and later released towards the end of Ajimobi’s government in 2018.
