A meeting was earlier scheduled against October 6th, 2025 at the police division. I was even thinking Agbaje Kazeem or Arikewuyo would come with the news that the white venza has been used to resolve the matter, and we can talk on how the black venza would be moved out of the terminal, and I take it. Lo and behold, Ajagbe Kazeem, not to mention his respondent or lawyer, didn't show up on October 6th, 2025, till I left the Roro Port police division around past 7 p.m on that day.

It was on October 8th, 2025, that Ajagbe Kazeem chatted with me on WhatsApp, asking for the e-mail of the IPO to send the telex copy. I chatted with the IPO who gave me his email he said he had earlier sent it to him, and I sent it to Ajagbe Kazeem. After he sent it, he went mute and the IPO invited Arikewuyo and me to the division. On getting there, IPO told us that he can't give the car to any of us until Ajagbe Kazeem comes or he is tracked. He then said the car must come out of the terminal to the station but Fatai Arikewuyo got angry and said that the car should remain in the terminal. In the long run, he said he doesn't have money to contribute or pay for the car to come out of the terminal but on the 11th of October, 2025, I spent about N1,500,000 out of the customs clearing money to bring the car out of the terminal to the police division.

Since on the 11th of October, 2025 that the car has been out of terminal to the police division, the IPO said he hasn't seen Ajagbe Kazeem Muhammed or his so-called respondent or lawyer call or come. On Monday, 10th of November 2025, Ajagbe Kazeem Muhammed called me on Whatsapp begging with the name of God that it will be sorted that week assuring and telling me to record(which I did) that I'm the one he is giving the black Toyota venza but till Saturday, 15th of November, 2025, nothing reasonable has been said or reported happened rather than him sending unapologetic and criminal oriented whatsapp voice note talking out of context while leaving the main crux of the matter which is releasing the car he collected money for since July 12th, 2025.

DonADESIDA:
He claims to be a DSS officer

Lols.....are you sure, it's not just a ploy to instigate the DSS to help you smoke him out for apprehension ?

Not at all. He told me he is a DSS officer when I first met in Abuja in 2021/2022.

I know of 3 other people he told that he is a DSS officer.

There is a possibility that it is true or he is just impersonating.

He is yet to hand over the car as of now.

His claim does not make him to be who he said he is.

A Department of State Services (DSS) officer caught perpetrating fraud will face both internal disciplinary actions, including dismissal from service, and criminal prosecution in accordance with Nigerian law.

Internal Disciplinary Measures
The DSS has a strict code of conduct and an internal accountability process. An officer found guilty of fraud internally would face severe disciplinary action, which typically includes:
Suspension pending a full investigation.
Dismissal from service, which involves the forfeiture of benefits and perpetual disqualification from government employment in some cases. The DSS recently dismissed 115 personnel as part of reform measures and has published a list of those dismissed to prevent them from defrauding the public.
A directive to refund any illegally obtained earnings.

Criminal Prosecution
In addition to internal discipline, the officer will be handed over to the appropriate law enforcement and prosecuting agencies, such as the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) or the Nigeria Police Force, for criminal charges. The legal consequences under Nigerian law can include:
Imprisonment, with potential sentences of up to 20 years, depending on the severity and nature of the fraud (e.g., obtaining by false pretense, advance fee fraud).
Fines and asset forfeiture to compensate victims.
A court order for restitution to the victims of the fraud.

The DSS has publicly stated that arrested former officers will face prosecution in accordance with the law to maintain the agency's integrity and protect the public. The public can verify official DSS communications or report suspicious activities through the official DSS website or the contact information provided by the Service dss.gov.ng.

The Department of State Services (DSS) has warned against one Victor Onyedikachi Godwin, a dismissed officer allegedly impersonating its personnel to defraud unsuspecting Nigerians.

The agency, in a statement, said Godwin had been parading himself as a serving DSS operative and carrying out fraudulent activities under the guise of official representation.

“The Department of State Services (DSS) hereby alerts members of the public of the activities of one Victor Onyedikachi Godwin, a dismissed staff.

“He is reportedly engaging in unscrupulous activities, including using the name of the Service to defraud unsuspecting members of the public. Members of the public are therefore advised to desist from any dealings with him”, the statement read.

The DSS urged citizens to be vigilant and verify the identity of anyone claiming to represent the Service before engaging in any form of transaction or commitment.

It advised that all legitimate enquiries or complaints should be channelled through its official contact lines, telephone number 09088373515 or email dsspr@dss.gov.ng.

Reaffirming its commitment to integrity and accountability, the Service warned that anyone found impersonating its personnel or engaging in related fraudulent acts would be prosecuted.

The agency added that the latest advisory follows a similar warning issued last week concerning Barry Donald, another dismissed officer, who was also accused of impersonating DSS officials to swindle members of the public.

According to the DSS, such cases of impersonation threaten the Service’s integrity and public confidence, adding that it will continue to expose and prosecute those attempting to exploit its name for criminal gain.

The Department of State Services (DSS) has dismissed 115 officers in a major internal purge aimed at curbing impersonation, tightening discipline and restoring public trust in Nigeria’s secret police.

In a public notice seen by PLATFORM TIMES on Tuesday, the agency published the names and photographs of the sacked personnel, warning Nigerians not to transact any official business with them.

“As part of the ongoing reforms in the Department of State Services, the public is hereby informed that a total of 115 personnel have been dismissed over a period,” the notice read.

“Members of the public are therefore advised to desist from any official dealing with these individuals who have been dismissed by the Service.”

The personnel were quietly removed between 2024 and 2025. Though the DSS did not disclose specific offences, authoritative security sources said that the purge targeted operatives linked to misconduct, abuse of authority and activities capable of damaging the agency’s reputation.

The move follows the recent arrest of two previously dismissed officers, Barry Donald and Victor Godwin, who allegedly continued parading as DSS operatives to defraud unsuspecting citizens.

The agency had earlier issued a public advisory cautioning Nigerians against engaging the duo.
