Nasarawa State Government Orders DSS Probe into Shettima Visit Disruption
The Nasarawa State Government has directed the Department of State Services (DSS) to investigate the disruption that occurred during Vice President Kashim Shettima's courtesy visit to the Emir of Lafia on Wednesday. This visit was part of Shettima's representation of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu at the All Progressives Congress (APC) Presidential Campaign Rally for the 2027 General Elections.
The government expressed regret that the homage was disrupted by irate youths suspected to be associated with high-profile figures, including Senator Umaru Tanko Al-Makura and retired Inspector General of Police Muhammad Abubakar Adamu. The government condemned the actions as reckless and aimed at undermining the Vice President's office and the state's image.
The DSS has been tasked with conducting a thorough investigation to identify the causes, perpetrators, and sponsors of the incident, ensuring that those responsible face legal consequences. Citizens of Nasarawa State have been urged to remain law-abiding.
