SSS invades SERAP office in Abuja

The SSS has invaded SERAP's office in Abuja

The State Security Service (SSS) has invaded the office of the Socio-Economic Rights and Accountability Project (SERAP) in Abuja.

SERAP made this known through a post it shared on its official X account on Monday afternoon.

“Officers from Nigeria’s State Security Service (SSS) are presently unlawfully occupying SERAP’s office in Abuja, asking to see our directors,” the post read.

“President Bola Tinubu must immediately direct the SSS to end the harassment, intimidation and attack on the rights of Nigerians.”

The Department of State for Security (DSS) had, meanwhile, earlier on Monday morning arrested the President of the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC), Joe Ajaero.

The NLC head of media and corporate communications, Benson Upah confirmed Ajaero’s arrest in an interview with Channels Television.

Upah said the DSS operatives arrested Ajaero at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Aiport in Abuja.

According to Upah, the NLC does not know where its president has been taken to but he had sent a message saying it was the DSS that arrested him.

The NLC president recently honoured the invitation of the Intelligence Response Team (IRT) in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Abuja.
