The State Security Service (SSS) says it is the rightful owner of the Ikoyi building where the EFCC Lagos headquarters is located and so can do whatever it wants with it.

The SSS said this in response to a PREMIUM TIMES enquiry on why its officials Tuesday morning blocked EFCC officials from the Ikoyi building.

“It is not correct that the DSS barricaded Efcc from entering its office. No. It is not true,” SSS spokesperson Peter Afunanya wrote in a statement. “The Service is only occupying its own facility where it is carrying out its official and statutory responsibility.”

“By the way, there is no controversy over No 15A Awolowo Road as being insinuated by the Media. Did the efcc tell you it is contesting the ownership of the building? I will be surprised if it is contesting the ownership. Awolowo Road was NSO headquarters. SSS/DSS started from there. It is a common knowledge. It is a historical fact. Check it out.”

“There is no rivalry between the Service and the EFCC over and about anything. Please do not create any imaginary one. They are great partners working for the good of the nation. Dismiss any falsehood of a fight.”

As of 9:45 a.m., dozens of EFCC officials were still stranded in front of the office amidst the confusion caused by the actions of the SSS operatives.

I hate efcc bunch of fools..

E be like say EFCC don dey collect their job and no dey give them small change 😆

D

With force. Is it not federal government property? Why can't federal government talk about it or give order. Or better go to court.

The DSS needs to be careful not to start inter agency battles. If it continues to act in this way, it will only make it more difficult for it to do its job. The DSS needs to demilitarize its operations and focus on its primary function of protecting the country from threats.

Cornfused agencies.

Shoot una sef...


Two Govt Agency behaving Like Agbero And Omo Nile trying to fight for territory....

God bless tinubu

Story for the gods

See as una lock them for outside like tenant way de owe house rent for 10yrs. At least make una let them carry their red jackets way de office nau. Poor EFCC. Justice for the red jacket men

These agencies want to further make a caricature of this shithole country.

Who is responsible for this ?

"Mr Tinubu’s many controversies, from perjury, multiple identities, corruption to documented drug-trafficking, are also beginning to embolden the country’s darker instincts, with politicians, officials and security operatives, making a show of competing for who is the baddest gangster."

8 yrs far oo

Why are you wailing more than the bereaved?

Lol ... the hunter gets hunted, the EFCC should be scrapped.

Duplicate functions with other government agencies

Clowns 🤡

What is the difference between DSS and SSS?

Nigerians fear shettima, tinubu is not the problem.

Nigerians never realized themselves yet

EFCC has outlived its purpose long ago. If they were working, Nigeria would have long become better for it. We have had high profiled corrupt cases swept under the carpets and never to hear about them again - ever. They have now relegated themselves after petty crimes to keep themselves perpetually 'working.' I care less about anything in Nigeria now. So long as I don't get killed on my farm where I get my survival from by Fulani herdsmen, I bother no more about this auto-piloted-ill-structured arrangement called Nigeria.

You’re not intelligent and don’t deserve to make comment in a public domain like Nairaland

If its a federal building..it belong to us

Lol.. the blood sisters, who go come investigate this Misconduct now?

Interpol, FBI come oo.

Make them buy land or building inside Ikoyi for EFCC naw

nice one if possible arrest some of those red jacket criminals and throw them into your underground cell. also grab their phones and wipe their btc wallets. they are all crooks living larger than their salaries with millions of dollars in hidden networth. if tinubu can setup and agency to investigate EFCC he will be sainted. EFCC is the most corrupt organization in Nigeria after NNPC

I hope Bawa has not stepped on the wrong toes. I'm almost certain this is a calculated move against him since the backbone Malani no longer wield the AG/MoJ power.

They should Scrap off EFCC, they aren't doing their Job
