The Department of State Services (DSS) has issued a legal threat against two major broadcast stations, Africa Independent Television (AIT) and Channels Television, over what it described as “false and malicious reports” concerning its role in the recent crisis at the Lagos State House of Assembly.
The security agency accused both media houses of inaccurately reporting that its operatives had “stormed or invaded” the Assembly complex during the events of Monday, February 17, 2025.
Earlier reports indicated that DSS and the Nigeria Police took control of the Assembly complex following tensions surrounding the impeachment of Speaker Mudashiru Obasa.
