BEVERLY HILLS, November 21, (THEWILL) – Officers of the Department of State Security (DSS), on Tuesday morning, resisted officers of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission from arresting a former head of the DSS, Ita Ekpeyong.
The EFCC officials tried to arrest Ekpeyong and sacked boss of the National Intelligence Agency (NIA), Ayo Oke, from their homes on Mamman Nasir Street in the Asokoro district of Abuja but were resisted by armed security agents of the two agencies attached to both men.
This has led to a continued stand off between armed security officers from a combined team of EFCC officials working with police officers and armed operatives of the other two agencies causing a traffic mayhem in the area.
