“The Department of State Services (DSS) wishes to assure the public and stakeholders in the Ondo Governorship election scheduled for 10th October, 2020 of its preparedness for the exercise.
“In this vein, the Service will not only partner with sister security agencies but support the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to ensure that the election is hitch free. It has also enjoined its personnel to remain professional while discharging their duties.
“The Service, therefore, urges all players in the electoral process to abide by the rules of the game. Persons and groups that may wish to engage in violent activities leading to breakdown of law and order are advised to desist from such devious plans or be ready to face the full wrath of the law.”
