The Department of State Services (DSS) has said that it did not raid the headquarters of the National Pension Commission (PenCom) but only stationed its men to forestall further tampering with documents by some officials of the commission, The Tribune reports.
According to a source, the nation’s secret police said it received intelligence that some vital documents were being doctored and backdated by some official of the commission following the change of guard at the office.
On Thursday, President Muhammadu Buhari sacked Mrs Chinelo Anohu-Amazu as PenCom boss, replacing her with Aliyu Dikko.

The source said the DSS stationed its men to arrest unlawful altering of documents or circumvention of due process.
“We had intelligence information that some documents are being tampered with. Some documents are being signed and backdated at the PenCom office following the announcement of a new management of the commission.
“We are only being pro-active by ordering all officials there to stop forthwith any action on official documents pending when the new management will assume duty,” the source said.
