The Department of State Security (DSS)
has called on Nigerians living in locations outside their states of
origin not to relocate to their home states in anticipation of violence
arising from the coming elections.
In a statement last night by the
spokesperson of the DSS, Ms. Marilyn Ogar, the agency assured the
citizenry of their safety in any part of the country before, during and
after the elections.
The statement said: “It has come to the
knowledge of security agencies that people are relocating to their
states of origin in anticipation of violence during the forthcoming
general elections in the country.
“We wish to reassure the public of their
safety wherever they reside as adequate security is assured for all
before, during and after the elections.
“We want to also seize this opportunity
to caution those who spread falsehood or rumours of violence to desist
from such acts.Those who intend to foment trouble are hereby warned that
there will be no hiding place, as the long arm of the law will fish
them out”.
