Stop using DSS to harass Fayose, other PDP Governors – Youths warn Buhari


A Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, youth group known as the National Youth Frontier, PDPNYF, has warned President Muhammadu Buhari against using operatives of the Department of State Service, DSS, to shut out opposition in Ekiti, Akwa Ibom and Rivers State.

The youths in a statement issued in Abuja by its National Coordinator, Okai Austin accused Buhari of using security operatives to intimidate the Ekiti State Governor, Ayodele Fayose and other PDP governors who are not sympathetic to his change mantra.

Austin urged Buhari to realize that he is a beneficiary of democracy and as such, should protect the rights of fellow citizens as mandated by the constitution.

He said: “What is happening in Ekiti State is alien in every ideal democratic setting. As I speak, some members of the legislature in Ekiti State have taken to hiding for fear of being assassinated by the DSS.

“Nigerians saw the kind of brutal force the APC utilized during the Bayelsa and Rivers States elections wherein Nigerians were brutally killed under unclear circumstances. As at now, no one has being brought to book.”

“We are aware party men like Ayo Fayose, Deji Adeyanju and some other loyalists are on the watch list of the DSS. Nothing must happen to them because we are aware of how intolerant this government is and the extent it can go to cover up its failures and excesses.”

Austin also accused the DSS of been the militia arm of the All Progressives Congress led administration, adding that the agency now feels that the “only persons capable of causing breakdown of order are members of the PDP, therefore, no other group deserves to be monitored including Fulani herdsmen and the Boko Haram terrorist group.”
