The Department of State
Services (DSS) has called for vigilance and cooperation from Nigerians
during the Eid-El-Fitr celebration. The service previously urged citizens on
March 4, 2024, to be vigilant against public dangers, particularly Improvised
Explosive Devices, advising them to stay informed about potential threats and avoid
crowded or suspicious areas.
In a statement reported
by PunchNews on Tuesday, the Director of PR and Strategic Communications, DSS,
Peter Afunanya, assured Nigerians that the service would collaborate with other
security agencies to ensure citizens' security during the festive period. He
emphasized the need for everyone to be security conscious and report any
suspicious activities to security and law enforcement organizations.
Furthermore, Afunanya
congratulated Muslims across the country for the completion of the fasting and
prayers, expressing the DSS's desire to celebrate the Eid-El-Fitr festival with
the Muslim Ummah. He acknowledged the peaceful completion of Ramadan as a
period of fasting, prayer, and reflection for Muslims worldwide.
Afunanya highlighted the
core values of Eid-El-Fitr, including love, mercy, and compassion, which
resonate deeply with the ideals of peace, harmony, and generosity fundamental
to the country's collective good. He urged everyone to celebrate responsibly,
exemplify the true essence of the event, and strive for common humanity based
on harmonious coexistence, a good conscience, and neighbourliness.
Additionally, the DSS
admonished citizens to carry forward the spirit of charity, empathy, and unity
beyond the festivities and abstain from any acts capable of undermining these
principles. This call to uphold core values and foster unity aligns with the
spirit of Eid-El-Fitr and contributes to a peaceful and harmonious celebration
for all Nigerians.
Overall, the message from
the DSS emphasizes the importance of vigilance, collaboration, and adherence to
core values during the Eid-El-Fitr celebration. It underscores the collective
responsibility of Nigerians to ensure security and promote unity and mutual
respect in society.
