The Department of State Services (DSS) has announced the dismissal of 115 personnel as part of its ongoing internal reforms and efforts to rid the agency of corruption and misconduct.

The DSS advised Nigerians to avoid any form of official dealings with such individuals, emphasizing that their identities have been published on the agency’s official website for transparency.

In October, the DSS had previously released disclaimers on Donald and Godwin, who were alleged to have used the agency’s name to defraud members of the public. The two men have since been arrested and are awaiting prosecution, according to the security agency.

The DSS reiterated its commitment to institutional discipline, ethical service delivery, and the eradication of impostors tarnishing its reputation.
