The Department of State Service (DSS) is currently interrogating the leadership of Cattle and Food items dealers under the aegis of Amalgamated Union of Foodstuff and Cattle Dealers of Nigeria (AUFCDN) over the recent hike in the price of food and beef in the Southern part of the country.
Recall that the union had earlier embarked on an indefinite strike to protest the alleged maltreatment of Fulanis and other Northerners in the South.
The invitation by the DSS was disclosed by the General Secretary of the AUFCDN, Ahmed Alaramma, during a press briefing at the Labour House, Abuja, on Monday.

The State Security Service (SSS) has confirmed the arrest of Salihu Tanko, a former media aide to the Kano State Governor, Abdullahi Ganduje.
Mr Tanko was arrested hours after calling on President Muhammadu Buhari to check Nigeria’s worsening insecurity or resign. He has also been sacked by Governor Ganduje.
The SSS spokesperson, Peter Afunnaya, in a short statement late Saturday in Abuja said Mr Tanko is in their custody, facing investigation.
“This is to confirm that Salihu Tanko-Yakasai is with the Department of State Services. He is being investigated over issues beyond the expression of opinions in the social media as wrongly alleged by sections of the public,” the statement read.
