Amnesty International Nigeria has called on the Department of State Services (DSS) to urgently investigate the alleged extrajudicial killing of two men by one of its personnel, Ajayi Abayomi, describing the incident as a grave violation of human rights. In a statement shared on its official Facebook account, Amnesty International said the incident occurred on January 19, 2026, in the Karmajiji community of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT). “This gross violation of human rights must not be swept under the carpet,” the organisation stated. Amnesty International also recalled a similar incident on September 7, 2023, when a DSS operative reportedly killed a fashion designer at Garki International Market, Abuja, during an altercation linked to a dispute involving the operative’s girlfriend and her tailor. Amnesty International Nigeria urged the authorities to take decisive action to end impunity, uphold the rule of law, and ensure that security agencies operate strictly within their legal mandates while respecting human rights.
