Nigeria: We've uncovered plot by some groups to destabilise Nigeria--DSS

- The Department of State Security (DSS) has again claimed that there are plots to destabilise Nigeria - Spokesman of the service, Peter Afunanya, made this known in a statement on Monday, July 27 - The DSS is known for raising such alarms in the past with nothing to show for it subsequently

The Department of State Services (DSS) has again, informed Nigerians that there is a plot by some prominent personalities and groups to destabilise the country. The DSS said the unpatriotic groups are taking advantage of the existing security situations in some parts of the country to carry out their plan.  Spokesman of the service, Peter Afunanya, made this known in a statement on Monday, July 27.

To ensure the safety of all and the peace and stability of the country, Afunaya said the DSS was working with relevant authorities to ensure that the sinister objective is not achieved. Like in the past, the DSS spokesman failed to mentioned the names of those behind the threats or the modus operandi of their plans. Part of the statement read:

‘‘The service reiterates its commitment to the internal security of Nigeria and will, within the confines of the law, decisively deal with planners of the mayhem. ‘‘Law-abiding citizens are urged to go about their normal businesses and disregard the antics of agents of destabilisation. ‘‘‘They should, however, avail the service and related agencies with useful information about the activities of criminals and groups intent on instigating violence in the country.’’ The DSS is known for raising such alarms in the past with nothing to show for it subsequently.
