The Department of State Services (DSS) arraigns five people before the Federal High Court in Abuja for allegedly concealing the whereabouts of Timipre Sylva, a former governor of Bayelsa State. The DSS says Sylva is implicated as a financier in connection with an alleged plot to overthrow President Bola Tinubu’s administration through a coup d’état. According to the reports, Sylva is declared wanted over his alleged role, and the five defendants are charged with allegedly hiding information that could help locate him. The outlets describe the case as one involving information concealment rather than a direct accusation that the defendants participated in the alleged coup plot. The identities of the defendants are reported, though the names are not fully repeated across the articles provided. The proceedings are framed as part of DSS actions related to the broader investigation into the alleged coup plot against Tinubu’s government. The reports do not indicate the pleas entered or provide details on court outcomes at the time of publication.
