The Department of State Services, DSS, has denied any involvement in the invasion of the headquarters of the Nigeria Labour Congress, NLC, in Abuja.

This is as the presidency has maintained sealed lips over the invasion and the alleged confiscation of vital documents from the Labour House.

Reacting to the allegation that the secret police carried out the raid at the NLC headquarters, Wednesday night, the DSS spokesman, Dr. Peter Afunanya, said that the agency had nothing to do with the operation.

He said, “Good morning, dear friends. Please kindly note that the Service (DSS) did not carry out any operation at the NLC office in Abuja.”

Efforts made to get reactions from the media team of the presidency did not yield any results.

However, a source from the seat of power, when contacted, declined to make any comment and simply said, “Please leave me out of it; I don’t want to make any comment.”
