Nigeria’s Department of State Services (DSS), the nation’s secret police, has carried out a dramatic raid on the headquarters of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), a sister agency. Under the shroud of darkness, the operation unfolded, persisting until the early hours of Saturday morning. The primary objective of executing the raid covertly was to prevent the public from gaining knowledge of the action. Additionally, the personnel of the EFCC received explicit instructions not to divulge any details regarding the invitation to the general public.
Inside sources have now disclosed that the motives behind the DSS’s actions extend far beyond what has been publicly stated. These insiders suggest that the DSS is pursuing a specific interest of significant importance to the President, indicating hidden intentions at play. Furthermore, another source has hinted at a possible connection between the raid and the recent closure of the EFCC office in Ikoyi, Lagos, by the DSS.
In light of these revelations, allegations have emerged that the raid itself, coupled with allegations of favoritism within the DSS, prompted concerned EFCC officers to raise alarm bells on the preceding day (Saturday). These officers expressed apprehensions that certain dissatisfied colleagues might conspire to undermine the agency and bring disgrace to its leadership. The situation surrounding this incident remains fluid, and further updates are expected as more information unfolds.
