The Inspector General of Police (IGP) Usman Alkali Baba has rolled out emergency numbers as he emphasised the commitment of the Force to ensure the safety of lives and property within the country.
The IGP emphasized this while charging all Strategic Police Managers in charge of Commands and tactical formations within the country to beef up security in their respective jurisdictions, especially in the FCT.
Baba further directed that all emergency numbers across the country should be activated for a round-the-clock prompt response with combatant officers and men on standby to respond in case of emergency situations and distress calls.
A statement on Thursday night by Force Public Relations Officer, CSP Muyiwa Adejobi said, “Residents within the FCT are urged to remain vigilant and report any suspicious or abnormal occurrence and persons to the Police through the following emergency lines: 08032003913, 08061581938, 07057337653, and 08028940883.
“The IGP, therefore, allays the fear of residents in the FCT and admonishes them to go about their lawful businesses and normal social lives/engagements as all hands are on deck to nip any security threat in the bud and respond to distress calls promptly.
“The IGP similarly reiterates the commitment of the Nigeria Police to eliminating all threats, as well as protection of lives and property of all residents of the country.”
