Operatives of the Department of State Services, DSS, have stormed the office of the Socio-Economic Rights and Accountability Project, SERAP in Abuja.
This was disclosed in a post via SERAP’s official X handle on Monday.
According to reports, the officers were demanding to see the rights group’s directors.
The post read: “Officers from Nigeria’s State Security Service (SSS) are presently unlawfully occupying SERAP’s office in Abuja, asking to see our directors.
“President Tinubu must immediately direct the SSS to end the harassment, intimidation, and attack on the rights of Nigerians.”
SERAP only on Sunday gave President Tinubu 48 hours within which to reverse the recent hike in the pump price of premium motor spirit (PMS). SERAP asked the President to use his “leadership position and good offices to direct the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL) to immediately reverse the apparently illegal and unconstitutional increase in the pump price of premium motor spirit (PMS), also known as petrol, across its retail outlets”.
