DSS warns on possible terror attacks during Sallah celebration

The Department of State Services (DSS) on Thursday alerted Nigerians on possible terror attacks during the Eid-el-Kabir celebration.

In a statement issued in Abuja, the DSS spokesman, Dr. Peter Afunanya, said the agency has uncovered plans by criminals to attack worship and recreational facilities before and during the festivities.

He said the reports were corroborated by the recovery of primed Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs) from suspected terrorists during a joint operation by the DSS and its sister security agencies.
