Shocking!:SSS discovers arms in Akwa Ibom Govt House •

Firstclass newsline gathered that men of the Department of the State
Service have uncovered arms and ammunition from the Akwa Ibom State
Government House in Uyo.
Firstclass newsline gathered that the discovery was made during a
surprise raid. The operation was jointly carried out by operatives
from the SSS headquarters in Abuja and the state command, according
toPremium Times.The SSS reportedly stormed the Hilltop Mansion based
on security reports.
After ransacking the entire residence of the governor, which is yet to
be occupied by the serving Governor, Udom Emmanuel, the operatives
moved to guest houses and the presidential lodge, said to be currently
in use by ex-Governor Godswill Akpabio.
Security sources said on Friday that the arms were found in one of the
guest houses while searching for documents and Improvised Explosive
Devices.
When contacted, the state government declined to comment on the report.
Meanwhile, Ekiti State Governor, Mr. Ayodele Fayose, has condemned the
invasion of the Akwa Ibom Government House by the armed men of
Department of State Services.
Fayose said the manner the DSS ransacked, intimidated and harassed the
occupants, claiming they were searching for bomb and documents, was
"strange and anti-democracy."
The governor, however, accused the DSS of acting a sinister motive to
run down the Peoples Democratic Party-controlled states, instead of
going after the Independent National Electoral Commission suspected to
have been involved in graft.
He said, "Interestingly, the DSS under Alhaji Lawal Daura that has
turned Akwa Ibom State and other states into centre of its draconian
operations has not deemed it necessary to invite for questioning, the
Yobe State Resident Electoral Commissioner, Mr. Abu Zarma, in whose
bank account N15m alleged to be a bribe was found.
"From the barbaric act of the DSS and other actions under Alhaji Lawal
Daura in the last few weeks, one can conclude that Daura is taking
Nigeria back to the 1984 era of Gen. Mohammadu Buhari and this is
unfortunate.
"No doubt, the DSS Director-General is acting out a sinister script of
taking over the PDP-controlled states in the South-South and South
East by whatever means.
"Daura's actions as the DG DSS are regrettable, unfortunate,
condemnable and unacceptable because he has come to symbolise
dictatorship, which democracy abhors."
Fayose, who addressed journalists on Friday in Ado-Ekiti through his
Special Assistant on Public Communications and New Media, Mr. Lere
Olayinka, urged President Muhammadu Buhari to call Daura to order or
sack him if he was uncontrollable."
"As for me, I will continue to talk because Nigeria belongs to all of
us. Nigeria is not a banana republic that can be ruled anyhow by
anyone and Daura should know that this reign of brute force over
constitutional democracy will fail."
