The organisation, in a statement issued on Thursday said the DSS must investigate the killing of the two residents by Abayomi on January 19, 2026.
Describing Abayomi’s action as horrific, AI accused the DSS personnel of showcasing recklessness, unlawful use of firearms and abuse of power.
AI said, “The DSS must investigate this horrifying incident and ensure that the suspect is brought to justice through a fair trial.
“While security personnel are supposed to protect people, gradually some of them are unleashing terror on society — creating a toxic climate of fear and corruption.
Also reeling out appalling conduct of personnel of the secret agency, AI recalled that on September 7, 2023, a DSS operative killed a fashion designer at Garki International Market Abuja during an altercation with his girlfriend’s tailor.
