The FCT police command has dismissed reports of 19 individuals kidnapped and 12 killed in Galadimawa, Abuja, which went viral three weeks ago.
A statement released by the FCT police command spokesperson, Joseph Adeh, today, November 22, states that after careful examination of the allegations, it has been clearly established that these allegations are false and misleading, showing an intention, deliberately or otherwise, of misleading and instilling fear in the public.
Adeh stated that the FCT Commissioner of Police, CP Haruna G. Garba, assures residents of Galadimawa and indeed the entire FCT that the Command has deployed a robust and tactical intelligence apparatus to ensure the safety of lives and properties.
While urging residents to remain vigilant, CP Haruna warned those spreading false and baseless reports to desist from doing so. He stressed that this misinformation only serves to distort the prevailing peace and tranquility that residents of the FCT enjoy.
”The FCT Police Command remains steadfast in ensuring the safety of the public and urges those spreading misleading information to join hands with the Command to reduce crime and criminality to a minimum
The CP urges members of the public to promptly report distress calls and complaints through the following emergency hotlines: 08032003913, 08061581938, 07057337653 and 08028940883. Additionally, the Public Complaint Bureau (PCB)” the statement read
