“As part of the ongoing reforms in the Department of State Services (DSS), the public is hereby informed that a total of 115 personnel have been dismissed over a period.
“In addition to earlier disclaimers on the duo of Barry Donald and Victor Onyedikachi Godwin, the Service finds it necessary to warn citizens of the fraudulent activities of some of these persons still posing as DSS personnel.
“Members of the public are therefore advised to desist from any official dealing with these individuals who have been dismissed by the Service.
“For clarity, the identities of the affected persons have been published on the website of the Service (https://dss.gov.ng/media/more/4).
“For requests, enquiries or complaints, the Service can be reached on 09088373515, or via email: dsspr@dss.gov.ng.”
The development comes amid major shake-up across the military after reports of an attempted coup.
Although the Federal Government has refused to deny or confirm reports on the coup attempt, President Bola Tinubu fired some service chiefs last week.
Some security operatives are currently in detention over the alleged coup attempt.
