In response to recent media reports alleging an invasion, occupation, and threats against directors of the Socio-Economic Rights and Accountability Project (SERAP) by the Department of State Services (DSS) in Abuja, the National Civil Society Council of Nigeria (NCSCN) has dismissed the reports as sensationalised and misleading.

NCSCN Executive Director Blessing A. Akinlosotu stated this while addressing journalists in Abuja yesterday.

According to Blessing, after a thorough investigation, “NCSCN has dismissed the reports as sensationalised and misleading.”

Contrary to the widespread narrative, “Our findings indicate that the DSS visit to SERAP was a routine, civil engagement aimed at familiarising with the new leadership of the organisation.”

“There was no invasion, no threats, and no harsh treatment by the DSS officers,” NCSCN stated. “The interaction between both parties was cordial and focused on national issues.”

While acknowledging past incidents of overzealous behaviour by some security officers, NCSCN stressed the importance of accurate reporting on sensitive security matters to prevent public unrest.

“We call on SERAP to provide concrete evidence to support its claims if it insists on the allegations against the DSS.”

The organisation also emphasised the role of civil society in promoting peace and urged all groups to refrain from spreading exaggerated or false narratives.

NCSCN reaffirmed its commitment to transparency and truth, calling for calm among its 600 affiliate members while urging both SERAP and DSS to clarify the situation for the public.

Meanwhile, NCSCN congratulates Mr. Tosin Ajayi, the newly appointed director general of DSS, expressing optimism for a collaborative relationship aimed at national progress.
