The acting President Professor Yemi Osinbajo has ordered the immediate termination of the appointment of DSS DG, Lawal Daura.

This was just as the ruling party All Progressives Congress (APC) dissociated itself from the blockade of the National Assembly by operatives of the DSS on Tuesday.

Senior Special Assistant on Media to Prof Osinbajo, Laolu Akande, made this known via his Twitter handle.
