Following recent attacks by Boko Haram
men on the nation's capital, the Minister of the Federal Capital
Territory, Senator Bala Mohammed, yesterday issued a statement directing
all hotels in Abuja to henceforth submit the list of guests in their
hotels on a daily basis to the FCT Directorate of Department of State
Security as well as the FCT Police command.
The statement which was signed by the Minister's
special assistant, Media, Nosike Ogbuenyi, advised residents of
Abuja to embark on operation 'know your neighbor' campaign for early
identification of strange faces within their neighborhood.
The statement directed all traditional rulers in
the FCT to conduct periodic meetings with all the communities within
their domain so that they can take stock of the people in their area and
report strange faces, if any, to the Police. Continue...
The statement also directed that trucks/ lorries
bringing goods into the FCT must now offload their contents during the
day and not at night anymore. The Minister in the statement said legal
actions would be taken on owners of uncompleted buildings in Abuja
whose buildings may have been converted to criminal hideouts.
