The Department of State Services, DSS, has urged residents of the Abuja metropolis and Nigerians, in general, to remain calm.
Its plea comes while reacting to the United States and United Kingdom security alert, saying the security agencies are right on top of the situation.
DSS has received several enquiries relating to the security advisory issued by the US Embassy in Abuja, today.
“The public may recall that the Service had variously issued similar warnings in the past.
“While advising that necessary precautions are taken by all and sundry, the populace is enjoined to remain alert and assist security agencies with useful information regarding threats and suspicious criminal acts around them,” a DSS statement partly read.
