DSS Arrests Suspects, Seizes Diverted Palliatives
The Department of State Services (DSS) has said that it has arrested some suspects and seized some palliatives.
This, it said, followed reports from some state governments relating to diversion or sale of palliatives meant for their citizens.
These were contained in a statement by the Public Relations Officer of the Department of State Services, National Headquarters, Abuja, Mr Peter Afunanya, Ph.D. fsi, dated September 5, 2023.
“DSS has received reports from some state governments relating to diversion or sale of palliatives meant for their citizens.
“Consequently, the Service undertook investigations in that regard and has recovered some of the items as well as apprehended the suspects,” the statement read.
Afunanya stated that while the operation is ongoing in other states, “the Service has, for instance, intercepted a suspected criminal syndicate in Nasarawa State responsible for the diversion and sale of the palliatives meant for the vulnerable in the place.”
According to him, “among those suspects are officials of Nasarawa State Emergency Management Agency (NASEMA) and their accomplices in the markets, notably Modern Market Lafia, where the items were being resold. The suspects have, however, been handed over for appropriate disciplinary measures.”
The Service, then called on members of the public, who it said might have information relating to the emerging trend to report same to the relevant security agencies for necessary action.
