A human right lawyer,Femi Falana (SAN), on yesterday, slammed the Department of State Services (DSS) over last week’s invasion of the Yoruba activist, Sunday Adeyemo aka Sunday Igboho’s residence in Ibadan, Oyo State.
DSS operatives had last Thursday raided Igboho’s residence and recovered seven AK-47 rifles and 5,000 rounds of ammunition among other items from the building.
The agency also arrested 13 suspected supporters of the activist during the raid.
However, Igboho had dismissed the DSS claim and accused the agency of planting the cache of arms recovered from the building.
Falana, who featured in a Channels Television’s programme, Politics Today, described the DSS action as a “nocturnal coup,” and accused the security officers who participated in the raid of defaulting on the side of the law.
According to him, the DSS invasion of the Yoruba activist’s home came in the fashion of armed robbery or political coup.
