The
DSS is still investigating Mr. Suswam for alleged link with a militia
leader, Mr Terwaze Akwazza who has held three local government in Benue
State captive.

The continued detention of the former Benue state governor is said to be for security reasons.

The recent invasion of Zaki-Biam by unkwon Militia was said to have fueled the decision of the DSS to hold on to Suswam.
