Exposed: How groups planned to set Nigeria on fire

DSS operatives

The Department of State Services (DSS) has uncovered plans by some groups to set the nation on fire as well as inflame passions across ethnic and religious divides with expected violent consequences.

A statement issued by Dr. Peter Afunanya, Public Relations Officer, DSS on Monday said reiterated its earlier alert to the nation of plans by subversive groups and individuals to undermine national security, peace and unity in the country.

“These elements are determined to exploit political differences and other occurrences, within and outside the country, to destabilize the nation. They also initiate narratives to deepen their subversive objectives so as to achieve preferred illegal outcomes.

“The aim is to set the country on fire as well as inflame passions across ethnic and religious divides with expected violent consequences. Also, the Service expresses dismay over the increasing use of fake news and unsubstantiated information spread across social media platforms to deceive and incite sections of the populace to civil unrest,” he said.

While condemning the unpatriotic and misguided activities of these anti-social elements, the Service equally warned them to desist forthwith from their unholy acts as the full weight of the law would be brought against them.

“In the same vein, citizens are enjoined to remain law abiding, peaceful and report any suspicions likely to inhibit public safety to appropriate authorities. On its part, the Service will remain committed in its pursuit of national stability in line with its statutory mandate of protecting the country against crimes and threats to its internal security,” the statement said.

Your Honorary Citizenship in Dallas is worthless, Sowore blasts Peter Obi

The presidential candidate of the African Action Congress, Omoyele Sowore, has slammed the presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Peter Obi, for celebrating the honorary citizenship conferred on him in the United States.

Obi in the early hours of Wednesday shared the news of his honorary of citizenship of Dallas on his Twitter handle.

Reacting, Sowore said Obi had been scammed and the certificate wasn’t worth the paper it was printed on.

Tweeting, Sowore said, “No wonder 
#PeterObi clearly stated he’s got no ideology different from #atiku and the rest, for him to be celebrating the conferment of ‘honorary citizenship’ of Dallas show he’s got no clue that the award is not even worth the paper it was printed upon. Someone scammed him!”
