Dennis Amachree, a former director at the State Security Services (SSS), has attempted to clarify some of the speculations surrounding Lawal Daura, sacked Director-General of the agency, and who ordered him to besiege the National Assembly on Tuesday.
Amachree revealed on Channels Television’s Sunrise Daily Wednesday, that Daura can only take instructions from President Muhammadu Buhari or vice president, Yemi Osinbajo.
The ex-DG who retired from the DSS as assistant director , investigations & intelligence in 1999, said: “DSS don’t take directive from anybody except the President or the Acting President, so for DSS to take directive from an opposition party or somebody else is not correct.
“The leadership of an intelligence agency should know that there is what they call ‘separation of powers,” he added.
