The secret police said the plotters planned to embark on violent protests nationwide to engineer the declaration of a state of emergency as well as secure frivolous court injunctions to prevent the inauguration scheduled for May 29, 2023.
These were disclosed by the Public Relations Officer of the DSS, Peter Afunanya, in a statement on the evening of Tuesday, March 29, 2023.
He said: “The Department of State Services (DSS) has identified some key players in the plot for an Interim Government in Nigeria. The Service considers the plot, being pursued by these entrenched interests, as not only an aberration but a mischievous way to set aside the constitution and undermine civil rule as well as plunge the country into an avoidable crisis.
