FCT police command debunks reports of d3ath of two wedding guests in Abuja

The FCT Police command has debunked media reports claiming that two wedding guests were k!lled by criminals in the Bwari council area of the FCT last Friday, October 3. Online reports alleged that the wedding guests were returning from a wedding held in the Gwagwalada area in the FCT when the assailants attacked them and k!lled them. However in a statement released today October 6, the spokesperson of the command, SP Josephine Adeh, said investigations show the incident did not happen in the area. Adeh mentioned that investigations and geographical verification reveal that the locations mentioned in the story, including Garam, Rafin-Azum, and Tafa Local Government Area, are communities situated in Niger State, and not within the FCT. Furthermore, the Suleja Police Area Command cited in the report is also under the Niger State Police Command, not the FCT Command. It is therefore misleading to attribute the unfortunate incident to the FCT, as neither the location nor the police jurisdiction involved fall within the Federal Capital Territory. While the FCT Police Command sympathizes with those affected and acknowledges the proximity of these border communities to the nations capital, it is crucial that media reports maintain geographical accuracy to prevent public misunderstanding or unnecessary fear among Abuja residents.'' Adeh said The police imagemaker added that the FCT Commissioner of Police, CP Ajao S. Adewale, calls on residents to always remain vigilant and promptly report suspicious activities or persons through the Commands emergency lines 08032003913, 08061581938. The post FCT police command debunks reports of d3ath of two wedding guests in Abuja appeared first on Linda Ikeji Blog.
