Abuja — The Radio, Television, Theatre and Arts Workers Union (RATTAWU) don honour Director-General of the Department of State Services (DSS), Adeola Oluwatosin Ajayi, for im contribution to strategic intelligence and national security, according to the trusted scoop wey reach OGM News Pidgin. The honour come at a time when intelligence-led security don become one of the major tools Nigeria dey use to respond to complex security challenges.
WHEN STRATEGIC INTELLIGENCE DEY TALK, SECURITY PEOPLE DEY LISTEN
The recognition no be entirely surprising because Ajayi don collect several public honours in 2026 for im work around security and media engagement. In June, the Nigeria Union of Journalists (NUJ) name am Man of the Year for strengthening relationship between security agencies and journalists, while another national security conference also recognise am for intelligence leadership.
For DSS, strategic intelligence mean say security no suppose wait make wahala happen before dem begin think of solution. Recent reports show say DSS and other security agencies don place more emphasis on intelligence-led operations, information sharing and coordinated response to threats. So, as RATTAWU dey celebrate intelligence, Nigerians fit simply conclude say even information wey never become news fit already dey get security clearance somewhere.
STRATEGIC INTELLIGENCE AWARD SEASON DON TURN NATIONAL SECURITY TO RED-CARPET MATTER
Ajayi, wey become DSS DG for 2024, don also receive recognition from broadcasting and media organisations. Broadcasting Organisation of Nigeria (BON) honour am as Friend of the Media in April 2026, while NUJ later recognise am for media-security partnership.
The latest RATTAWU honour therefore add another feather to the DSS boss cap, especially as national security remains one of Nigeria’s biggest concerns. But for ordinary Nigerians, award no be the final examination; wetin people really want see na security wey go translate from strategic intelligence into safer communities. And because intelligence work naturally dey happen quietly, citizens fit never hear the full story until the results begin show.
As this honour put strategic intelligence and national security back inside public conversation, OGM News Pidgin go continue to watch how the DSS and other security institutions dey turn intelligence into practical security results. For now, make readers keep eye open, because for security matter, the information wey everybody hear today fit only be the small part wey dem decide say everybody fit hear tomorrow.
