OSINBAJO SACKS DSS BOSS FEW MINUTES AGO.{PHOTO}.


    According to Punch ''In what appears to be a twist to the siege on the National Assembly by security operatives on Tuesday, the Acting President, Yemi Osinbajo, has sacked the Director-General of the Department of State Service, Lawal Daura.
The DSS and the Police had locked down the National Assembly on Tuesday, even as the Senate leadership had scheduled a meeting to hold in the chambers in the afternoon.Lawmakers who came with the hope of attending the meeting were denied entry into the Assembly by the security operatives.
Lawmakers elected on the platform of the ruling All Progressives Congress had dissociated themselves from the security operativesā€™ actions, even as the opposition Peoples Democratic Party had accused the Executive and APC lawmakers of an attempt to truncate democracy.
Osinbajoā€™s spokesman, Laolu Akande, disclosed Dauraā€™s sacking on his Twitter handle, @akandeoj.
He wrote, ā€œAgP Yemi Osinbajo has directed the termination of the appointment of the DG of the DSS, Mr. Lawal Musa Daura.ā€œMr. Daura has been directed to hand over to the most senior officer of the State Security Service until further notice.ā€
