The residents of Kwali, Gwagwalada and Kuje areas of the Federal Capital Terrritory, FCT, have been advised by the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps, NSCDC to be security conscious.
\nThe security agency specifically advised residents of the areas to profile visitors before accepting them as members of their communities, to avoid harbouring dangerous criminals.<\/p>\n
Ahmed Audi, the Commandant General of the Corps, gave the advice on Thursday in Abuja, while inaugurating a new NSCDC Division in Kwali, alongside the Chairman of the Area Council, Mr Danladi Chiya.
\nHe said residents of the FCT, particularly those in the outskirts, should always be alert because intelligence reports indicate that criminals hide and use bushes and hills around them to perpetrate crimes.<\/p>\n
According to him “Security agencies are however on top of the situation, hence, the need for vital intelligence reports from citizens.<\/p>\n
\u201dIf you see something, you must say something because without that we can\u2019t perform magic and whatever information is supplied will be treated confidentially, and together we shall find solutions to this menace of insecurity,\u201d he said.
\nAudi charged community and traditional leaders to profile visitors before accepting them as members of their communities, to avoid harbouring criminals.<\/p>\n
\u201cSome of them come and live with the residents and indigenes and begin to plan attacks,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
The CG said the newly inaugurated office would encourage operatives of the corps within Kwali to perform better.
\n\u201cKwali LGA has demonstrated that security is everyone\u2019s business and is now rated as one of the LGAs to donate this edifice to our service.<\/p>\n
\u201dYou have done your part so we will do our part as it is now our responsibility to equip the office with all necessary equipment to put the edifice to use\u201d.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
