The US also has its federal police, the FBI isn't. Do you know that the Secret Service was like our own EFCC until 1901 when the scope of work was reviewed, to include protecting the President after the assassination of President Mackingly?

Please what is the US Federal police called? *honest question*

The fact that the Secret Service *was* similar to the EFCC years ago does not remove the fact that they have become a highly trained unit for providing close protection for VIPs. In Nigeria the DSS are the ones with equivalent training and weapons. They should be left to provide close protection for the commander in chief

How many times will I say it: nigeria is a jungle, appropriately situated in Africa. We lack basic standard of conduct in every sphere of life although everyone has armed themselves with MSc PhD, we're still closer to chimps than to the highest human specimen

In the US, does FBI, which is similar to our DSS, provide security for the President?

The United States Secret Service (USSS) is a federal law enforcement agency under the U.S. Department of Homeland Security.[1] Until 2003, the Service was part of the U.S. Department of the Treasury.[2]

The U.S. Secret Service has two distinct areas of responsibility:

Financial Crimes, covering missions such as prevention and investigation of counterfeit U.S. currency, U.S. treasury securities, and investigation of major fraud.[3]
Protection, which entails ensuring the safety of current and former national leaders and their families, such as the President, past Presidents, Vice Presidents, presidential candidates, visiting heads of state, and foreign embassies.
