The award on Bichi, according to President of the International Security Organisation (ISO-SEC), Dr Nikolas Fokianos, is in recognition of his excellent leadership of the primary domestic intelligence Agency of Nigeria and the recorded successes against emerging internal threats in the country.
The DGSS was represented at the Forum by the Service’s Public Relations Officer, Dr Peter Afunanya, who appreciated the organisers for considering his boss worthy of the honour.

In the meantime, management and staff of the Service have heartily congratulated the DG, while wishing him greater heights, good health and long life.
