DSS Tasks citizens on Intelligence to tackle Insecurity
The Department of State Services (DSS), has stated that government and security agencies cannot tackle insecurity in the country without the support of the citizens, especially on intelligence gathering.

The Director-General, DSS, Yusuf Bichi have urged Nigerians to rather than point accusing fingers at the security forces, support them to rid the country of all forms of criminality.

The DG who was represented by Peter Afunanya, the Service Spokesperson, made this call on Saturday at the Security and Emergency Awards (SEMA 2020)at the Nicon Luxury hotel Abuja, where the service was conferred award by Emergency Digest, a subsidiary of Image Merchants

“We call in Nigerians to support security agencies and government. Security is no longer for government and security, there is need for collaborative efforts and partnership. You continue to stay in your comfort zone and continue to blame security agencies for all, but the information that the security agencies need have you brought it?
