Over a year
after seven officials of the Department of State Security went missing after
engaging some vandals at Arepo, Lagos, their families were allegedly last
Saturday
October 29th contacted by the agency's authority and handed over
N250,000 for burial. When asked of their remains, the families were told, it
can't be located.
Actor Don
Saint who is a brother of one of the missing official shared the recent
development on social media.
Posting a
photo of his brother, He wrote:
"This is
my brother, the Samson of my family, my community, my state and Lagos State.
The best DSS officer in Lagos State (2014) .
After over one year of sorrows, pains and
false hope, The DSS has finally alerted the families of missing DSS officers
that their loved ones 'died' as heroes in the line of duty.
On Saturday,
29th of October, The DSS gave each of the families 250,000 as their own
contribution for their burial... When we asked about their bodies, they told us
that they can't locate their bodies.
The minister
of information once said that most Nigerians spend up to 100,000 on a bottle of
Champagne… So I ask, if the lives of these 'fallen' heroes as they said, is
worth only about two bottles of Champagne?
I'm making a
case not only for my brother but for all the security personnel who put their
lives in harm’s way for the sake of this nation. While some people are paid to
loot our money, those people who put their lives on the line are treated as...
They say what goes around comes around, hence, as we continue to wallow in our
pains, we thank President Buhari and the DSS as we lay this on the table of God
Almighty!
God bless
Nigeria!
Note: Seven
DSS officers went on a mission to rescue a kidnapped woman on the 15th of
September 2015. Since then till now, no word or any form of contact from the 7
of them, while the woman was released two days later by the kidnappers.
