Abuja – The Department of State Services (DSS) has alerted members of the public to plans by some elements to launch improvised explosive device (IED) attacks on soft and hard targets in some parts of the country.

The department raised the alarm in a statement issued on Tuesday in Abuja.

“The Service has uncovered a ploy by suspected criminal gangs to forge an alliance among themselves with a view to launching further attacks on critical infrastructure and other frequented public places like worship and relaxation centres, especially during and after the holidays and festive celebrations.

“The objective is to achieve some self- serving interests as well as cause fear among the citizenry.

“The Service, however, recalls its earlier warning that some groups and individuals were plotting to stoke violence in the country,” Peter Afunanya,
Public Relations Officer,
Department of State Services, said in the statement.

He warned patrons, owners and managers of the “aforementioned public places are advised to be wary of this development and implement basic security measures to deter the threats. ”

Afunanya reiterated the committment of the Service to foil any plan of violent attacks in any part of the vountry.

“It will continue to partner with other security agencies to ensure that necessary drills are emplaced in order that public peace and order are not jeopardised,” he said.

The statement then enjoined residents to go about their lawful businesses and share, with security and law enforcement agencies, useful information on the activities of criminals.

The Director-General, DSS, Alhaji Yusuf Magaji Bichi, in the statement wished all and sundry a hitch-free Workers’ Day and Sallah celebrations. (vitalnews)
