2023 Election Outcomes: DSS Warns Against Inciting Statements To Cause Violence News
The DSS, in a statement on Saturday night, warned against any action that could lead to violence and cause a breakdown of law and order.
The Service also urged politicians, who maybe aggrieved from the outcome of the recent elections to seek redress in the court of law instead of engaging in activities that could cause violence. Part of the DSS statement noted that: “the DSS will not tolerate a situation where persons and/or groups take laws into their hands and champion anarchy.
“Those peddling fake news, hate speech and all forms of false narratives as basis to ignite violence or pit the people against the present or incoming administrations, at the Federal, State and Parliamentary levels, should stop forthwith. “Those inciting violence have nothing to gain as doing so will not only consume them but also the innocent. It is otherwise disturbing to see respected personalities use their platforms to mislead or incite citizens. This, to say the least, does not augur well for peaceful coexistence and general order.
