The Department of State Service (DSS) says it has identified persons and groups planning to stage campaigns of calumny against it and the federal government over the suspension and subsequent investigation of Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria, Mr Godwin Emefiele.
DSS, in a statement by its spokesperson, Dr Peter Afunanya, said the groups intend to gather at different points in Abuja and Lagos with placards depicting the service and the federal government in bad light as well as calling for the immediate release of Emefiele.
It, however, failed to mention the groups and their mode of operation.
The service warned those behind the plot to desist forthwith.
The DSS disclosed that it has granted the family of Emefiele, medical officials and appropriate persons access to him, right from the day he was taken in and obtained a court order to do so.
The service said it implements standard operating procedures on suspect handling and investigation professionally.
