The State Security Services, SSS, has uncovered plans by some persons and groups desirous of taking advantage of latest developments in parts of the country to destabilize it.
A statement signed by the Agency’s Public Relations Officer, Peter Afunanya, on Tuesday, however, said the Service is, without doubt, aware of these plans and their sponsors.
According to the statement, some prominent personalities and socio-cultural groups have resorted to divisive acts through inciting statements aimed at pitting individuals, groups and ethnic nationalities against another.
The service, therefore, said it would no longer tolerate the orchestrations by subversive and unscrupulous elements to cause a breakdown of law and order in the country.
The SSS assured that it was working assiduously with relevant authorities and sister security and law enforcement agencies to ensure that the sinister objective is not achieved.
The Service reiterates its commitment to the internal security of Nigeria and will, within the confines of the law, decisively deal with planners of the mayhem.
The SSS, therefore, urged the law abiding citizens to go about their normal businesses and disregard the antics of agents of destabilization.
The service also urged the general public to help it, and related agencies with useful information about the activities of criminals and groups intent on instigating violence in the country.
