* Police urge vigilance
The Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Police Command has warned that some strange persons have been trooping into Abuja, stating that the command is working towards evicting such personalities from the nation’s capital.
The FCT Deputy Police Commissioner, DCP Ben Igweh, stated this while parading 98 suspected iron scavengers on Monday at the command’s headquarters.
During the briefing, the DCP told journalists that some strange persons have been trooping into the nation’s capital.
He said: “Abuja is not for everybody. We have asked them to go to where they are supposed to be. We are working towards clearing them from the FCT. We will keep doing that and we will not relent.
“We recovered from them several things that they are not supposed to scavenge. They steal properties while claiming to scavenge refuses. We have asked them to relocate. Many people have been trooping into the FCT. And some of them are coming with evil intentions. Whenever you see them, let us know.
“We are taking them to court to make sure that justice is given. We have a serious issue now because of threats from so many places,” he said.
