Shehu Sani denounces the DSS raid on SERAP’s office

Shehu Sani, a former senator from Kaduna Central, has denounced the invasion by Department of State Services agents into the Abuja office of the Socio-Economic Rights and Accountability Project.

On Monday, SERAP announced on its official X feed that DSS agents had taken control of its Abuja office, sounding the alarm.

The organization demanded that President Tinubu give the DSS urgent instructions to stop harassing, intimidating, and violating the rights of Nigerians.

Reacting to the development in a post on his official X handle, Sani expressed concern over the invasion, stressing that security agencies must respect the fundamental rights of the organisation.

He wrote, “The reported invasion of the SERAP office is concerning. Security agencies must respect the fundamental rights of the organisation, its officials, and its members as guaranteed by the constitution of the country.”

In a related development, Amnesty International has criticised President Bola Tinubu for the ‘unlawful’ invasion of SERAP’s office by operatives of the secret police.

Reacting to the incident, Amnesty International, in a post on X, said the president was going too far in his administration’s efforts to suppress dissenting voices.

The post read, “Amnesty International received a disturbing report of the unlawful invasion of the Abuja office of the Socio-Economic Rights and Accountability Project by operatives of the DSS. President Bola Tinubu is going too far in his government’s repressive efforts to silence dissenting voices.”
