The Director General of the State Security Services has received praise from President Bola Tinubu and other stakeholders for his extraordinary actions in tackling the nation’s numerous problems. The acknowledgment of a higher degree of cooperation with sister security services is noteworthy. The Director General of State Services, Mr. Oluwatosin Ajayi, has received public praise from many Security Chiefs for providing them with the intelligence needed to carry out their official responsibilities.
The heads of almost every paramilitary group and sister security agency in the nation, as well as the former chief of defense staff, have continued to value the Director General’s high degree of collaboration. Numerous members of the various paramilitary organizations have freely acknowledged that the DG and SSS’s support has played a significant role in their success. A few of them freely acknowledged how their performance has been impacted by DG and SSS cooperation.
The Director General’s efforts, regard for the Service, and encouragement of the majority of SSS employees are also crucial. Recall that at the start of the DG, SSS’s tenure, the majority of active and retired employees welcomed him and supported his attempts to pull the service out of the deterioration and issues it had fallen into.
It is satisfying to see that the Service has regained the respect and credibility it had before the DG assumed leadership of the organization in recent months. In fact, because of his extraordinary accomplishments, even those who at first had some doubts about the DG’s and SSS’s capacity to manage the service’s operations are now ardent supporters. Many think that the Director General’s honesty and diligence are what have made him popular with the staff.
The majority of employees have been motivated to work hard by these considerations.
Recall that many were troubled by the magnitude of the difficulties his predecessor had left for him when the Director General started office. Now, the majority of employees, both active and retired, are pleased to report that he has conquered every obstacle.
As many have seen, his rehabilitation efforts are now paying off. The DG has shown observable leadership traits today. Today, he has transcended the narrow-mindedness and selfishness that have defined some of his predecessors’ endeavors. It is noteworthy that the DG is one individual who has not delegated his leadership duties to his subordinates. Additionally, he hasn’t let some people with questionable intentions sway him.
As mentioned earlier, the Director General is in favor of anyone who is forward-thinking and progressive. Along with this, he has begun to implement policies and initiatives that will elevate the service above many others.
Beyond this, he is committed to using the service as a model for others. Now, a lot of people in the intelligence field rely on him. We would want to point out that the Director General is completely devoted to the President. He does not have conflicting allegiances.
We think the President and the Government can rely on him. Given the current situation in the nation, he is unquestionably a very trustworthy asset. As some of us have noted in the past, the nation needs Security Chiefs who are reliable and able to always give the President the truth. It is crucial to remember that there are numerous security issues that could divert the President and the administration during this period.
The spread of the insurgents’ regrouping in the Northeast, the reunion of lawless bandits and herdsmen in the North West, planned and coordinated armed attacks in the North Central, and the widening political divides in the majority of the nation are some of these security issues.
The penetration of subversive elements across the nation’s permeable borders is equally unsettling.
Additionally, there are the actions of saboteurs.
We think the Director General could contribute to the government’s and the country’s continued security. He is an asset needed to stabilize the fledgling democracy of the nation. The majority of intelligence professionals have pledged to put in a lot of effort to make sure he succeeds.
