Breaking News: Trouble Ahead Of Elections As DSS Summons Top INEC Officials

The Department of State Security Services (DSS), has summoned a senior official of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) who substantively heads the commission’s operations and logistics, Okechukwu Ibeanu.

This is an indication the DSS may have moved to investigate the circumstances that led to the postponement of Nigeria’s elections earlier scheduled to hold last Saturday.

Mr. Ibeanu, a professor of political science, was asked to report at the DSS office in Abuja by 2:00 p.m.

Apart from Mr. Ibeanu, others asked to appear before the DSS include Chidi Nwafor, the Director of Information and Communication Technology (ICT), Ken Ukeagu; Osaze Uzzi, the Director of Voter Education and Publicity and Bimbo Oladunjoye, the Assistant Director of ICT.
