The Department of State Services (DSS) has denied its operatives shot someone in a filling station in Lagos.
A young man, Toheeb Eniafe, was reportedly shot and killed by security operatives in an incident at a filling station belonging to the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited at Obalende in the Ikoyi area of Lagos State on Thursday.
The Service on its X (formerly Twitter) verified handle @OfficialDSSNG monitored by The Nation on Thursday evening posted that enquiries about the matter should be directed to the police.
It reads: “The story that two DSS staff allegedly fired at a member of the public in a filling station and were also attacked by an angry mob in Obalende area of Lagos is NOT TRUE. The Police PRO in Lagos may be contacted for further enquiries on the incident, please.”
