And now: One of DSS Acts as copied:
According to the Act that setup DSS, it is a special security outfit to protect the President himself & his family and other VIPs. They are 💯% loyal to the President & not to the country, even though they are setup by the country. They do not work like Police or other military forces. They receive special security training to protect President and defend him and his office. DSS was setup as a measure to counter coup from military forces, hence their loyalty to the President 💯% alone. They are always prepared for any shakeup without reading meaning to it. That’s the nature of their job.




In view of this, any President is at liberty to choose whoever he deemed fit to head the institution that was setup to protect him.


For example ...
When OBJ was president ... the head of DSS was Col. Kayode Are
When Jonathan was President, Ita Ekpeyong was the head of DSS.
Therefore, if OBJ could have someone he trusted from his region and Jonathan chose someone he trusted from his region too, so why do you expect PMB to retain someone who he couldn’t trust to head his personal security team from other region, knowing the kind of politics of hatred and bitterness we are playing in this country? More especially when he was nearly killed in Aso Villa.




Let’s be honest, fair and sincere to ourselves. Also let’s learn to respect our laws and constitution. That’s what the law says and no ethnic bigotry can change that.
