Tuesday 7th December 2021: Operatives of The Nigeria Police Force have shot an official of the Department of State Services (DSS) during a raid on Dakwa community in the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja.
Reports claimed that the policemen from the Zuba division reportedly raided Dakwa community, an Abuja suburb on Friday, arresting about 37 residents.
According to reports gathered, the unidentified DSS official was said to be on transit when he was allegedly shot in the Dakwa raid.
Some passersby in the community were arrested during the operation which took place around 8pm.
A resident, who craved anonymity, alleged that the arrested residents were released the following morning on bail, after parting with N5,000 each 
Another resident, Aliyu Ibrahim, who introduced himself as a security guard in one of the private schools in the area, confirmed that he was one of the people arrested and taken to the police division where they spent the night.
He said other people arrested included traders, tea and roasted meat sellers as well as commercial motorcyclists.
“They stormed the area with three vehicles including a Hilux van, bus and a utility vehicle.
"They operated alongside local vigilantes who rode the impounded motorcycles, while their owners and other arrested people were conveyed in the police vehicles," Ibrahim said.
The Zuba Divisional Police Officer (DPO), CSP Osor Moses, confirmed the shooting of the DSS official but said he was responding to treatment at the University of Abuja Teaching Hospital in Gwagwalada.
He, however, referred inquiries on the incident to the FCT police command.
