“We will also continue to strive for the Federal Capital Territory to be free from any security breaches by providing the necessary intelligence.”

Engr. Chukwu called on synergy between all security agencies operating in the FCT‎, to ensure that Abuja is free from all criminal activities.

He said that the call has become necessary because of the ever influx of people into the Territory, due to security challenges in some parts of the country, thereby making the security situation in the FCT more challenging.

Engr Chukwu added that; “We want continued peace and stability in the entire 8,000 square kilometers of the Federal Capital Territory because Abuja is hosting Mr. President, members of the diplomatic community as well as serving as the seat of government, which calls for security agencies to be more proactive in service delivery.

“This is a period of reflection and change, I will like to also call on the security agencies in the Territory to continue to put in their best to enable Abuja remain a pacesetter because it’s no longer business as usual.

“I will like to enjoin all the heads of the security and anti corruption agencies in FCT to bridge the gap between the staff of the FCT Administration and their respective organizations, since we are all working for the government and for the common good of the people.”
