Renowned legal practitioner and a Senior Advocate of Nigeria , Mr Afe Babalola, says the Department of State Service is not empowered by law to arrest.
“The DSS duty in law is merely to gather information and give it to the President and all that. They are not to arrest,” he said. Although the agency defended its action blaming it on intelligence that some judges stashed larges sums of currencies in their homes, the development however received condemnation from prominent Nigerians and groups, including the opposition Peoples Democratic Party .
Laws in Nigeria are made for the mosquitoes & not for the elephants.
He should go and tell that to the court that granted DSS the power to detain Yele for 45days
