Charging the FCT residents to support security agencies in the fight against crimes and insecurity, Wike stressed that, “Ours is not to carry guns but give necessary information and they will make sure most of these things won’t be there again.”

He revealed that, within a week, his administration would provide security agencies with vehicles, motorcycles and other tools they need to work with.

Berating the politicisation of security issues, the minister frowned at unpatriotic comments on social media about security, saying that insecurity respects neither religion nor political affiliation.
