Presidency Plotting The Return Of DSS Boss, Lawal Daura?
There are indications that recently sacked Director General of the State Security Service, SSS, Lawal Daura may be recalled to his duty post, following new developments within the service.
A top security source close to the presidency and conversant with the new development told PRNigeria that plans are afoot to reverse the various reorganisations embarked upon by the acting SSS boss, Mathew Seiyefa.
Who are those scared of the actions of the new DSS boss?
The sources said: “The presidency is not happy with some recent deployment by the acting Director General of DSS, Mathew Seiyefa especially the redeployment of Director of DSS in Kano, Alhassan Muhammad to the Headquarters in Abuja and the deployment of Director Operations at the Headquarters, Mr. Godwin Bassey Eteng to the Institute of Security Studies, Abuja as Director and the posting of another officer from Kebbi to serve as the Chief of Staff to the DG in Abuja.
“The recent reorganisations which the new DSS chief has initiated include but not limited to postings of directors from headquarters to states and vice-versa. Others include reorganisation within the headquarters, postings across the various government agencies, and postings among the rank and file. Over 30 officers at all levels and cadres are affected in the reorganisation.”
“The impending reversal of the reorganisation is to maintain the status quo hitherto left by the erstwhile DSS boss Daura to pave way for his likely return following what the source revealed as a clean bill of health given to him or for a new replacement that will be very loyal to the Presidency and the ruling APC.”
The recall of Lawal Daura may portend misgiving in the eyes of both local and international communities in view of the current development is what security pundits could not clearly discern.
Recall that Daura had insisted that he took all actions in national interest through a collective responsibility.
