  • The Department of State Services (DSS) has dismissed 115 officers in what it described as part of ongoing internal reforms aimed at restoring discipline and integrity within the agency.

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.

In a statement posted on its official X (Twitter) handle on Tuesday, the DSS said the affected officers were dismissed over a period of time, stressing that the move is part of broader organizational reforms aimed at improving professionalism and accountability within the service.

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.
