FCT Is Safe And Secure – Says IGP Adamu

The Inspector General of Police, IGP M.A Adamu, has stated unequivocally
that the Federal Capital Territory is safe, secure and not under any
form of siege.

According to a statement signed by Force Spokesman, DCP, Frank Mba,
“This assertion comes against the backdrop of recent speculations in
some sections of the media, particularly the Social Media, of an upsurge
in crime rate within and around the Federal Capital Territory (FCT),
Abuja.

“While observing that, like other climes across the World, the country
has its security challenges, the IGP however notes that a comprehensive
analysis of crime statistics on major cities across the world would
reveal that Abuja has one of the lowest crime rates and remains
indisputably one of the safest capital cities in the world.

“The IGP further observes that the Federal Capital Territory Police
Command has a robust anti-crime architecture which is continually
rejigged to effectively tackle prevailing and emerging crimes. He
however enjoins all law-abiding citizens and visitors alike to go about
their lawful endeavours without any fear or apprehension.
