The Department of State Services has condenmed those calling for the resignation of the President, Muhammadu Buhari, over his failure to address the festering security crisis in the country.
It described the critics as misguided elements and accused them of threatening the government, sovereignty, and corporate existence of the country.
Notable Nigerians had flayed the President over his failure to curb the security crisis particularly, the Boko Haram insurgency, kidnapping, and banditry across the country.
Also, Buhari’s erstwhile supporter, the Spiritual Director of Adoration Ministry, Rev Fr. Ejike Mbaka had called on the National Assembly to impeach the President for incompetency if he failed to resign.

Disintegration
But reacting to the attacks on the President, the DSS Spokesman, Dr Peter Afunanya, said the main objective for the calls was the disintegration of the country.
In a statement on Sunday titled, “DSS supports indivisible, united Nigeria, warns against unsavoury, inciting utterances,’ the secret service said it has noted, “their desperation and penchant to collaborate with external forces and influences against Nigeria.”
The secret Police stated, “The Department of State Services hereby condemns the unsavoury statements by misguided elements who have continued to threaten the government, sovereignty and corporate existence of this country.
