DSS Urges Peaceful Coexistence During Lent, Ramadan

The Department of State Services (DSS) has felicitated with Christian and Muslim faithful on the Lenten and coming Ramadan seasons, calling for peaceful co-existence of all Nigerians through these holy days.

In a statement signed by the director, public relations & strategic communications, Dr. Peter Afunanya, the DSS also called for peace, unity and harmony among Nigerians and urged both Christians and Muslims to demonstrate tolerance and respect one another during and after the exercises.

The statement said; “The DSS recognises the significance of these sacred rites and enjoins worshippers to promote understanding, compassion and respect for one another during and after the exercises. It appeals to stakeholders to refrain from economic exploitation, sabotage or profiteering during these important obligations.

“This is more so that illegal practices such as price gouging or unethical marketing tactics are ungodly; violate fairness and can undermine the true essence of the holy events. As believers, it is incumbent upon us to uphold good standards
