A former Assistant Director with the Department of State Services, Dennis Amachree, has spoken on the viral video which was recorded in Wuse 2, Abuja, showing men in suits conveying armed thugs in a black Sports Utility Vehicle to attack protesters..
Amachree said on Channels Television’s Sunrise Daily programme that the men in suits were not DSS officials but actually aides to a senator.
.
He said just as the DSS had been able to identify and arrest impersonators, the Nigerian Army ought to do the same rather than just claim that those who opened fire on protesters at the Lekki toll plaza may have been impersonators.
.
The former DSS officials said, “I don’t want to follow the style of the army where they said people can buy uniforms and wear them and come out. If you wear a dark suit and tie and drive a black SUV, many people would say that is the DSS but I actually inquired about that.
.
“I called the headquarters to find out. Those people were working for a particular senator. And if that is the case, I think they should (arrest them). If anybody tries to impersonate security personnel, he should be arrested immediately.
.
“Don’t allow it to happen and then you go ahead and then do inquiries or panels or whatever. I know a lot of people impersonating SSS, taking letters to different places have been arrested and they have been dealt with immediately. Those people you are referring to were not SSS officials.”
.
Armed thugs conveyed in what appeared to be black government Sports Utility Vehicles with concealed number plates were seen attacking #EndSARS protesters in the Wuse 2 area of Abuja on Tuesday.
.
In a video that has gone viral on social media, some of the thugs are seen jumping into a black Prado driven by a man in a suit on Adetokunbo Ademola Crescent Wuse 2.
.
The vehicle is seen reversing unto Hospital Avenue and then the doors are flung open while thugs wielding stones and sticks run riot.
.
Another vehicle, which is a black Range Rover, soon joins the thugs while four buses filled with thugs park on the roadside as more thugs alight from the buses.

ReplyDeleteSo they have started speaking out the truth. Hmmmmm
DeleteAmen
DeleteToo bad for a renowned protester like PMB couldn't tolerate peaceful protest. Hypocritical APC government at peak of shameful display.
ReplyDeleteHypocrite of the highest level. She just Sani was right, if PMB was not in government, he would have been on the streets with the protesters, challenging the powers that be with his right hand man El Rufai and left hand man, Tinubs.
DeleteHmmmm perfect picture of 2 thieves by his sides 🤔 sense no go kii me 😉😋
Even police trucks. Saw d shameful videos. D most important thing is that d world has heard our voices ,seen & known d truth. Adesina is now accusing Pdp as sponsors of d protest. Adesina that was on d side of d masses as a journalist for years , is now totally compromised, without conscience?
ReplyDeleteWithout conscience I tell you 😩
DeleteThat porcupine and Woodpecker mouth, Onochie are lost cause. Don’t even bother to rack your intelligent brain about them.
