On Tuesday, January 17, 2023, the FCT Commissioner of Police, CP. Sadiq Idris Abubakar led a confidence-building and assessment patrol to Gomba village and other communities in the FCT’s Kuje Area Council.
While addressing the Team comprised of the Police, DSS, and vigilantes, as well as the locals, the CP stated that the patrol was aimed at warding off criminal elements, building confidence, and improving the synergy between the Police, sister Security agencies, and the Community to fight violent crimes in the future.
Furthermore, while at the palaces of the Traditional Rulers, the CP listened to the various complaints of the residents and promised the creation of more outposts and the absorption of interested youths into the Area’s Community Policing programmes to augment intelligence gathering, maximize other benefits of Community policing, and establish a generally improved visibility policing, particularly aimed at ensuring farming activities are safer.
Finally, the CP assured residents of the Territory as a whole of improved security architecture tailored to the Territory’s various topographical and social mapping. As a result, members of the public are urged to go about their lawful duties without fear or molestation from any quarter, while maintaining vigilance and reporting suspicious activities to the police.
Recall Police from the FCT Command stormed the dreaded Dadu hills in Kuje, dislodging bandits and rescuing kidnapped victims.
