DSS Moves To Clampdown On Authors Of Insurrection, Warns Against Inciting Utterances

 



DSS Condemns Activities Of Religious, Political Leaders, Warns Against Calling For, Forceful Change Of Government. 

 


The Department of State Services says it will begin a clampdown on agents of anarchy in various parts of the country.


According to a report by Channels, the DSS Spokesperson Peter Afunanya, in a statement while condemning those alleged to be creating instability through comments that threaten the sovereignty and corporate existence of the nation, also addressed what it described as "unnecessary vituperations" and activities of some religious and past political leaders who have either called for a forceful change of government or mass action against it.


The DSS described as unfortunate, a situation where those who should be patriotic were allowing their personal ambitions to ruin the nation.


It reminded every Nigerian that although democracy offers free speech, it does not give room to reckless pronouncements.


The agency, however, said it was working with other security and law enforcement agencies to ensure the maintenance of peace and internal security in the country.
