CAN Advises DSS To Stop Traumatizing Nigerians But To Go After Terrorists,
The Department of State Services (DSS) has been advised to fish out terrorists and other criminals afflicting pains on Nigerians, rather than just issuing security alerts at festive periods.
The Chairman, Kaduna State Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) Rev. Joseph John Hayab, gave the advice while reacting to the DSS alert that terrorists are planning to attack religious and fun places during the Eid Kabir festival.
He observed that it has become a conventional activity of the nation’s secret police to announce such security alerts, tasking them to institute preventive mechanisms against terrorists’ attacks and other criminal activities.
The CAN Chairman said, “This alert like many in the past has always come when festivities are around the corner.
“We hope and pray it is not diversionary. The DSS as a secret agent should go after the terrorists or criminals before they execute their plans.
“Nigerians are already traumatized and should not be further placed on another trauma. Thank God we have a new government and new security chiefs have just been appointed except that of the DSS.”
The clergyman said, “Nigerians will love to see proactive measures, not reactive statements. Everybody, therefore, needs to be on alert so that when you see something say something.”
“After all, security is everybody’s business, everyone should join hands to free our country from all security challenges through strategic action, not propaganda.”
