DSS Spokesman, Dr Afunanya
The Department of State Services (DSS) has denied any fight between the Service and the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) over a property in Lagos.
Spokesman of the DSS, Dr Peter Afunanya, said in a press release on Tuesday, and made available toNews Expressin Abuja: “It is not correct that the DSS barricaded EFCC from entering its office. No. It is not true.”
Clarifying the report trending in the social media, Afunanya said: “The Service is only occupying its own facility where it is carrying out its official and statutory responsibility.
“By the way, there is no controversy over No 15A Awolowo Road as being insinuated by the Media.
“Did the EFCC tell you it is contesting the ownership of the building?
“I will be surprised if it is contesting the ownership.
“Awolowo Road was NSO headquarters. SSS/DSS started from there.
“It is a common knowledge.
“It is a historical fact. Check it out.”
Afunanya added: “There is no rivalry between the Service and the EFCC over and about anything.
“Please do not create any imaginary one.
“They are great partners working for the good of the nation.
“Dismiss any falsehood of a fight.”
