The National Headquarters of the Department of State Services (DSS) has said that members of terrorist group, Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Sunday launched what it describes as unprovoked attack on its patrol team in Enugu, killing two personnel.

According to a statement sent to The DEFENDER, the Public Relations Officer (PRO) of the DSS, Dr. Peter Afunanya, disclosed the alertness of the service to ensuring that killers of those personnel killed in active service and everyone else involved in the attacks would be apprehended.

“The DSS wishes to inform the public that its patrol team was, today, 23rd August, 2020, attacked in Emene, Enugu State by members of the outlawed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB).

“The Service lost two personnel in what was clearly an unprovoked violent attack launched by IPOB on the team.

“The Service hereby condoles with families of the departed officers and also prays for the repose of their souls.

“However, all measures have been put in place to ensure that their killers and everyone involved in this dastardly act are promptly apprehended and brought to justice. Consequently, a full scale investigation will be carried out with regard to the incident.

“Once again, the Service reaffirms its commitment to assiduously work with other security agencies to maintain public safety and order. It, therefore urges law abiding citizens and residents to go about their normal businesses without fear,” Afunanya said.
