The Security signal from the Directorate of State Security, DSS, office in Awka is not favorable to the Governor of Anambra State, Chief Willie Obiano.
The embattled governor was caught taking away the credit that was due for the DSS on how they used pure intelligence gathering to arrest kidnappers and Robbers in the state.
Few weeks ago, the office of the Governor celebrated through online media how his newly-acquired drones were used to track and catch kidnappers including Cosmas Maduka’s brother, Mr. Pius Maduka.
At a point, people started advising President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan borrow the drones from Obiano and use it to rescue Chibok girls.
The President called the SSS director to find out about the actual capacity of the drones and how it can be introduced in crime bursting in Nigeria.
The SSS DG explained to the President that the drone never existed, he also said that what Willie Obiano actually tested (by those marketing it to him) was aerial camera he has not even paid for, for surveillance of the government lodge.
The camera does not capture any thing beyond the Government House.
The SSS Director in Awka was therefore directed to meet him and express disgust over his claim that he used drones to track Pius Maduka and his Kidnappers, when it was obvious that the credit must be giving to DSS for using tracker to burst the criminals.
The DSS insited that Governor Obiano must refute the story or else the DSS will do him the favor.
Those in the know said that was what prompted Obiano to go on air to say that the drone was not for catching or tracking criminals, But for measuring erosion.
But experts on erosion have made it clear that drones are not for erosion at all.
Seems many advisers in Obiano’s cabinet are bent on advising him badly and poorly.
