IPOB Kills DSS Operatives in Unprovoked Violent Attack
UNPROVOKED VIOLENT ATTACK ON DSS PATROL TEAM IN ENUGU
The DSS wishes to inform the public that its patrol team was,
today, 23rd August, 2020, attacked in Emene, Enugu State by members
of the outlawed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB).
The Service lost two personnel in what was clearly an unprovoked
violent attack launched by IPOB on the team.
The Service hereby condoles with families of the departed
officers and also prays for the repose of their souls.
However, all measures have been put in place to ensure that
their killers and everyone involved in this dastardly act are
promptly apprehended and brought to justice. Consequently, a full
scale investigation will be carried out with regard to the
incident.
Once again, the Service reaffirms its commitment to assiduously
work with other security agencies to maintain public safety and
order. It, therefore urges law abiding citizens and residents to go
about their normal businesses without fear.
