The Department of State Security Services, DSS has denied reports that it is tapping the telephone lines of certain Nigerians. In a statement sent to PoliticsNGR signed by its spokesperson, Mr Peter Afunanya, the security agency, described the reports as false.

The Statement read;

"The Department of State Services wishes to inform the public that it does not tap or eavesdrop on private conversations of citizens and residents and therefore denies the allegation by a political group to this effect.

Recently, the Agency has come under the focus of uninformed critics and unpatriotic commentators most of who feed the public with fake news and hate speeches against it. Social media is awash with wrong information of sorts regarding the Agency whose operations and activities are highly misunderstood and misrepresented.

It is obvious that some merchants of violence are determined to use their platforms to misinform the public for their selfish and political ends. In this regard, the Service warns that those bent on entrenching this mischief should be aware of the consequences of their misleading action as the law will surely catch up with them.

The DSS is a responsible organization and thus professionally adheres to the ideals of intelligence and security governance expected of it in a democracy. The public is, therefore, urged to disregard the claims of the political group.

The Service prefers that it is left out of the political fray as it wishes to maintain its usual transparency and neutrality in the discharge of its mandate. It enjoins all carriers of fake news and social media manipulators, who are deceiving the populace, to always THINK NIGERIA."

This news is useless. Even if they were tapping it, they will surely not tell you.

Yes, even an ordinary citizen can tap a walkie talkie.

True, but unfortunately, these dullards haven't gotten the capacity to do such in terms of IQ.
If they even manage to tap lines of the populace, do they know what to do with such data?

They can only use it to snitch on each other.

Wait..... Evenbif they do, will they have agreed??

Hakeem12:
As if they could, bunch of otus.

You are right brother, dss does not have the wherewithal to tap on Nigerians. The service is the most useless home security organization ever seen, common to solve simple organize crime being carried out by mediocres, they can’t.
