The Department of State Service (DSS), has said that it disrupted a Boko Haram spying network mounted at Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, Abuja.

This was a result of the arrest of one Sulaiymon Abdulraman, a suspected Boko Haram terrorist, from Kogi State.

A statement, signed by DSS operative, Tony Opuiyo said "The Service, in liaison with aviation security of Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, Abuja, disrupted a spying network mounted by the Boko Haram terrorists on Aug. 24."

"The suspect has confessed that he infiltrated the airport with the assistance of one Dauda Sadiq who is presently at large.

"Abdulraman said Dauda directed him to spy on installations at the airport and pass the information to him."

It said the Service was working closely with major aviation stakeholders, especially the aviation security, to forestall any possible attack and to ensure adequate security at airports.

"This is aside other measures which have been put in place to ensure protection of lives and property across the country", the statement read.

Members of the public are therefore urged to remain vigilant and be security-conscious at all times.

The public is therefore enjoined to report all cases and persons of suspicious character to the nearest security agency, and to assist with information that could be useful in stamping out insecurity
