“This criminal @ official ABAT actually went to Brazil to state that there is NO MORE corruption under his regime in Nigeria. What audacity to lie shamelessly!”

If ABAT actually made this comment. Why Is the DSS keeping the dog and bark themselves??

Re: DSS petitions Meta, demands deactivation of Sowore's Facebook account by valentineuwakwe(m): 1:35pm On Sep 08, 2025
This is where i pick interest;
Section 51 of the Criminal Code Act Cap.77 Laws of the Federation of Nigeria, which prohibits publication of false information; Sections 19, 22 and 24 of the Cyber Crimes Act 2025 which prohibit and make it an offence to spread fake news or publish content that is deliberately misleading .....

The main thing we should ask selves as Nigerians is; has corruption stop in Nigeria as claim by the president?
Was it a false information?
Was sowore spreading false information?


Its now left for Nigerians to ans!

Meanwhile bandits, kidnappers n even terrorists have social media accounts n my people have not written for any to be closed or even hunt them down.

We don't have issue with tackling govt but u went to far by Calling your president a criminal, Haba, Better Wait Ooo, is He Not a Criminal?

Those people Hailing Mr Sowore , They will be at the corner of their house Enjoying the Little They Can Afford. Men Are like that, don't Get Delusional, you will spend your Time in Jail Alone.

Na cash out season for major media outlets for Nigeria now. This administration is paying out lot of money to make these media avoid pushing out real situation of Naija. Paying a lot of jobless youths to say untruthful reality of the economic and security situation of the country. Even here on nairaland, Seun too dey use style cash out.

THIS IS NOT THE DSS (ie) SSS that I used to know in those days ..smh
which instructions has Tinubu not bastardised, is the police still the same instruction,or the judiciary or the legislators, or the inec,even governors are now reduced to people who travel all the way from their states to come and wave goodbye to a junketing president
Even the NLC is not left out ,there become a shadow of themselves, they are now reduced to a toothless bull dog
Re: DSS petitions Meta, demands deactivation of Sowore's Facebook account by Truvelisback(m):
DSS is another corrupt security agency in Nigeria who are dependent manipulated. It's high time Tinubu gets removed before he roots Nigeria to corruption and dictatorship government where Nigerians will no longer be able to express themselves. This useless government is trying to forcefully shut the mouth of Nigerians from expressing their pains.

Can't DSS arrest him and stop him from using social media in detention? Making a public appeal letter like this by the Secret Service of a nation is quite belittling and rather makes Sowore more popular. They should have known better.
Except for calling the president a criminal, every other thing he said is true. How can the president say there is no more corruption in Nigeria? That was a big lie and indeed the president is shameless.

You don't know DSS is the president personnel army? Many Nigerians are not exposed with government matters, they just come online and follow the trends
Because you don't like the trend doesn't mean you are right either.

The DSS is not the president's "personnel army" or whatever that means.

At its initial creation, during the military era, it was meant to be a counter-coup intelligence team. Never a recognized service of the nation.
But the civilian government turned it into a political weapon with much greater recognition than the NIA, and it gradually started taking that position officially. It is not fully recognized as an agency that counters internal and external threats, and the NIA is relegated to an assumed external threat. Meaning it doesn't serve the president any longer but officially now serves the state.

Same thing with EFCC and ICPC. ICPC was created by an official act, ratified from an international convention. But the EFFC was created by Obasanjo and used as a political tool that thereafter took an official shape to become a ratification of an international act that SCUML was already covering. So ICPC, which was supposed to be more powerful, was relegated to the back, and EFCC, which is supposed to be an ASO Rock mini team like the Abba Kyari team, is made to surpass the ICPC.

So because we are in a democracy, then you must say absurd things to uniform officials or inciting war or revolutionary utterances?
But when the presidency try to fight back with democracy, y'all will start playing victims 😂 😆
Tinubu is even calm grin grin grin
Just wait till someone of my mentality becomes the presidency or Lag governor, before your likes knows that democracy is not only for the poor but for all.

Hmm.
Na wa ooo.
What are they also afraid of?
Is this not a democracy we are practicing?

These Dss guys should continue making Sowore popular by the second. Instead of focusing on internal issues, they are busy attacking people with dissenting views.
They are doing their job.
Sowore like Samuel Ekpa is using social media to incite violence in the country.

Sowore has multiple nationalities and can run to other countries to hide in the event of any crisis. Not everyone has that privilege
Re: DSS petitions Meta, demands deactivation of Sowore's Facebook account by cartoon1001: 2:06pm On Sep 08, 2025
The DSS provides protection for the president, vice-president and VIPs according to their mandate so what they are doing isn't entirely out of place

Look at how you are disgracing yourself here like a baby?

So because DSS is officially assigned to protect the president, you think the president can use them anyhow he likes?

The way most of you people think in Nigeria is the reason politicians are misbehaving.

Re: DSS petitions Meta, demands deactivation of Sowore's Facebook account by Angelfrost(m): 2:20pm On Sep 08, 2025
Lol... So, DSS has no serious matters to attend to?!!

Over 200 people slaughtered across Nigeria in just one weekend, and nothing from the security apparatus.


I have never heard of Homeland or Secret service in America going after individuals for insulting or criticizing Trump while serious security issues are left to fester.

DSS doesn't need to ask Meta directly, just sponsor 1000s users to report his post as being offensive and divisive! Meta will do the needful

Is DSS BAT? Did Sowore say anything against DSS? Assuming it's politics, has DSS now become a political platform?
What is DSS? Probably you don't know what is called National Security and mandate of the agency to protect thus?

A supposed democrat, whom we were told fought for democracy, is the same one fighting hard to destroy the very democracy he fought for. A military Dictator in civilian form.

Re: DSS petitions Meta, demands deactivation of Sowore's Facebook account by FatherLord: 2:55pm On Sep 08, 2025
They are even threatening Facebook with federal might. The same federal might they could not use to protect the lives of 130 precious souls killed by bandits. Is DSS tinubu ? Can’t tinubu speak for himself by using his own Facebook account to report sowore to Facebook?
Re: DSS petitions Meta, demands deactivation of Sowore's Facebook account by FatherLord: 2:59pm On Sep 08, 2025
You know those 1000s users cannot be organic that is why you used the word “sponsor “ who would defend a government like this except if sponsored with money

Ahh I dey shame for DSS..wttf??is this what DSD has now become?then when we hear about DSS we use to dread and give them respect and want to be them but now they have become political footsoldiers and have lost their respect..now they really have no value and when we hear DSS all that comes to mind is cowards who can't go after bandits and kidnappers and only go after citizens who post against the wicked government online...just like the EFCC,police and dss have joined the team..smh
