The Federal Capital Territory Police Command has deployed personnel and material resources in their thousands across the nooks and crannies of the Territory ahead of the yearly festive celebrations.
Spokesperson of the Command, DSP Josephine Adeh, in a statement, said the proactive deployment consists of all intelligence and tactical assets at the Command’s disposal backed with inter-agency collaboration and the need to ensure that crime and criminality in its forms and dynamics are promptly nipped in the board.
“The deployment is notably characterized by strengthened police-community relationship towards intelligence gathering, stop and search, intelligence-led raids on black spots, visibility policing at every point of social convergence, highway and border patrol, aggressive vehicular/foot patrol, and surveillance, inter-agency collaboration and sundry.
