Leave Us Out Of Politics - SSS Warns

Today Spokesperson of the State Security Service (SSS), Mrs. Marilyn Ogar, has come out and accused a political party of trying to bribe two SSS officials a combined bribe of N14million to try and rig the the recently held Osun State gubernatorial election.
She was talking at a press briefing in the nations capital, Abuja and also responded to the recent allegation that one sss director was offered N10million.
She said: “A director in charge of election duties (security) was offered N4 million for himself and N10 million.
“It is because the money was declined, that is why the ‘certain political party’ is having a running battle with the DSS. Thank God the APC won the election; its loss could have been blamed on the DSS.”
Ogar said that such attempts were a waste of time as the sss is full of professionals who earn well and have no reason to disrupt their hard earned reputations. She said that SSS officials have been given money upfront so they are not thinking of soliciting or taking bribes.
She also rejected the notion that the some SSS officials where used during elections saying traditional chiefs would have been attacked by thugs if not for the presence of SSS members during the election in Osun.
“I am repeating my call on politicians to leave the agency out of politics,” she said.
The recently held Osun gubernatorial election was won by All Progressive Congress’s incumbant governor Rauf Aregbesola.
Earlier it was reported that allegedly two SSS officials were into some shady deals to push the outcome of the elections.
