Breaking: Nigeria’s Secret Police, DSS, Sacks 115 Officers Over Misconduct

828


As part of its ongoing internal reforms aimed at sanitising the service and upholding professional standards, the Department of State Services (DSS) has announced the dismissal of no fewer than 115 personnel.

The dismissals which took place over a period of time, were part of efforts to rid the organisation of misconduct and corruption, DSS said in a statement on Tuesday obtained by Persecondnews in Abuja.

The DSS also cautioned members of the public to beware of some of the dismissed officers who are still parading themselves as active personnel.

“In addition to earlier disclaimers on the duo of Barry Donald and Victor Onyedikachi Godwin, the Service finds it necessary to warn citizens of the fraudulent activities of some of these persons still posing as DSS personnel,” it said.

DSS further advised Nigerians to avoid any form of official dealing with the affected individuals, stressing that their identities have been made public on the agency’s official website.
