The Department of State Services (DSS) has raised alarm over plan by some people to cause ethno-religious crisis, ignite reprisals and heat up the polity in the country.
Its Public Relations Officer, Peter Afunanya, said on Saturday that the sponsors have mobilized foot soldiers and held several meetings in and outside the target areas.
The agency said students, striking lecturers, labour unions, disgruntled individuals and strategic groups are to be used “to exploit the global energy situation to carry out a mass protest like the ENDSARS.”
Afunanya noted that this is despite ongoing efforts by the government to address the issues.
The DSS disclosed it was trailing “the agents of destabilisation who are desirous of using violence to achieve ulterior goals”.
The statement warned, “the ring leaders and their cohorts to desist from acts capable of causing a breakdown of law and order”.
“Those who may wish to go contrary to the law will, however, will face the consequences”, it added.
