2015 POLLS: DSS ISSUES SECURITY ALERT

The Department of State Services (DSS) has urged voters to be on the look-out for security threats and remain law abiding as they go to cast their vote on election days.
A statement by the spokesperson of the Service Marilyn Ogar said: “Voters are advised to be weary of persons in loose or bulky midriff clothings, which are inappropriate for the weather, look out for unattended bags, luggage, dustbins, strange containers and other suspicious items.”
She added that: “Similarly, all vehicles, motorcycles, tricycles and bicycles must be parked far away from the polling stations.”

Ogar warned that: “All forms of trading should be discouraged, suspicious persons, activities and movements should be promptly reported to security agents.”
She said “the task of nation building is our collective responsibility, therefore, let us all play our parts and shun violence.”
“Once again, we restate our commitment to ensuring a peaceful atmosphere for all Nigerians to contribute towards strengthening our democracy,” the DSS statement said.
