The Department of State Services, (DSS) Nasarawa State, has arrested some Emergency Management Agency Officials who were caught selling palliatives meant for vulnerable citizens.
The suspects were alleged of selling the palliatives in the modern market in Lafia and other markets.

Afunanya noted that similar operations were ongoing in other states of the federation.

He, however, called on citizens who might have information on such incidents, in other states where palliatives are also being sold in their locations to report to security agencies.
