DSS Withdraws Security Details Of Saraki, Dogara Ahead nPDP Meeting With Osinbajo – Report
The Department of State Services (DSS) on Sunday recalled half of its operatives officially allocated to Senate President Bukola Saraki and the speaker House of Representatives, Yakubu Dogara, DailyPost is reporting.
This is coming ahead of Monday’s talks between Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo and the nPDP team to be led by Dogara.
Saraki is also a member of nPDP, the faction that broke away from the PDP in 2013 to team up with APC for the 2015 elections.
Also, the security operatives attached to the two presiding officers of the national assembly were directed to report to the DSS headquarters “with immediate effect”.
No reason was given for the withdrawal, although it is believed to have been at the instance of the presidency.
Reliable sources at the National Assembly have confirmed the recall of the operatives.
The nPDP had recently issued an ultimatum to APC for a meeting, complaining that it had been marginalised by the ruling party after helping them to oust the PDP from power in 2015.
