BEWARE: DSS, NOT CURRENTLY RECRUITING

The Department of State Services (DSS) wishes to inform the public that it is not currently carrying out any recruitment exercise.  This clarification has become necessary in view of desperate efforts by fraudsters to scam unsuspecting job seekers or their sponsors.  

The public should note that recruitment into the Service is never done on monetary basis.  Instead, it is guided by merit and transparency. Beneficiaries undergo series of screening and vetting processes and procedures through which only the best, produced by these, is taken.

In the context of this, members of the public should be mindful of attempts by fraudulent persons and /groups to fleece them of their hard earned money.  They should rather report to the Service any suspicion in this regard.  

BATTLE IN BAUCHI PDP, APC OVER DOGARA'S SEAT

There is tension in both the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and All Progressives Congress (APC) as July 4th 2021 date fixed by the Federal High Court, Abuja, to hear the case involving former Speaker Yakubu Dogara’s seat at the House of Representatives

Since the former Speaker of the House of Representatives, Yakubu Dogara, who, in 2019, got reelected to the Green Chamber on the ticket of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), defected to the All Progressives Congress (APC), there have been unending contention over his seat.

When the Returning Officer for the Tafawa Balewa/Bogoro Federal Constituency of Bauchi State announced his reelection on the platform of PDP with 73,609 votes to defeat the candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Dalhatu Kantana, who got 50,078 votes, not many observers then expected any serious contention in the near future over the seat he has occupied since 2015 and from which he emerged the Speaker of the House of Representatives.
