Operatives of the Department of State Services (DSS) have trailed an alleged coup monger to Oyigbo, a suburb of Port Harcourt, the Rivers State capital. According to security blogger Zagazola Makama, the suspect, one Innocent Chukwuma, was arrested for using his social media handle to rally the military to overthrow the current government.

Posting on his "X" handle "@TheAgroman," Chukwuma stated that a coup was needed in Nigeria and called on the military to "suspend the Nigerian government."

He posted: "A coup in Nigeria is needed.

“Dispose of APC, suspend the Nigerian Government, and join the AES. That is all we need now.

"It will happen eventually. Nigerians, the military needs your support now! Only them can save this country.

"The bastard in Aso Rock has basically sold this country to the West, and they run our intelligence apparatus. Only the military can reset this country. Support them," Chukwuma posted.

Zagazola quoted a source as disclosing that the suspect is cooperating with DSS investigators.
