The Department of State Services reports that an inquiry into allegations that its agents engaged in improper behaviour at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport in Lagos, including asking arriving passengers for money before allowing them to pass, has begun.
Following a complaint by a certain Pelumi Olajengbesi that some DSS agents at the MMIA solicited money before allowing arriving passengers admission, the director of public relations, Dr Peter Afunanya, disclosed the information.
Reacting to the development, Afunanya in a late-night statement made available to Vanguard said, “The attention of the Department of State Services (DSS) has been drawn to the allegation by one Pelumi Olajengbesi that the Service’s personnel at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport (MMIA), Lagos, engage in unprofessional conduct of sorts.
“Consequently, the Service has launched a full investigation into the matter.
“It further invites Olajengbesi and indeed any member of the public with evidence in this regard to come forward to the Service with such for appropriate action(s).
