May 29: DSS warns against unruly behaviours, non-adherence to protocols

 

 

Ahead of the inauguration activities to usher in the new government, the Department of State Services (DSS) has warned citizens and all individuals against unruly behaviours and non-adherence to protocols.

DSS, in a statement by its spokesman, Peter Afunanya, said it is aware of plans by subversive elements to disrupt the programmes in parts of the country.

It added that the aim is to undermine security agencies’ efforts at ensuring peaceful ceremonies as well as creating panic and fear among members of the public.

The statement partly read, “Based on these, citizens, the media, and Civil Society Organisations are advised to adhere strictly to security and civil protocols during the events.

“They are also urged to shun fake news, false alarms, skewed reportage/ narratives, and sensationalism that may likely inflame division, tension, and violence before and after the exercises.

“This is more so that such undesirable acts will serve no purpose other than destroying national unity and cohesion.

“Additionally, all unauthorised (and unaccredited) persons are warned to stay away from restricted and certain designated areas at the event venues”.
