NATIONAL ASSEMBLY MEMBERS, OTHERS ARE TARGETS OF KIDNAPPING, ASSASSINATION

Security

The Department of State Services (DSS) on Tuesday raised the alarm that certain groups and individuals intend to cause a breakdown of law and order in the country.

The Service said this as it has observed that some persons who are desperately seeking power, use wrong and skewed narratives to not only mislead citizens but cause chaos.

It said already, such persons are exploiting and politicizing the issue of insecurity in parts of the country for pecuniary and other selfish reasons.

Addressing reporters at the DSS headquarters, Public Relations Officer of the Service, Peter Afunanya, said many simply want to use the situation to cause divisions among citizens, seek cheap popularity, and present the country as ungovernable.

The Service also raised the alarm that recessing members of National Assembly and State Houses of Assembly and other public and private sector workers on vacation may be predisposed to threats of various degrees.

Afunanya said the Service, therefore, warns that those who are involved in these should desist from such destabilizing acts.
