The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Barrister Nyesom Wike and the Commissioner of Police in the FCT have been summoned by the senate over rising insecurity.

They will be briefing the Senate in a closed-door session.

The resolution was reached following a motion moved by Senator Ned Nwoko, representing Delta North on the need to urgently enhance security measures in the FCT during plenary on Wednesday, February 28.

Some of the resolutions reached include asking the Inspector-General of Police to urgently increase security patrols and surveillance within Abuja and across the nation to proactively combat and prevent further kidnappings.

The Inspector-General of Police will also be mandated to embark on the installation of CCTV cameras in strategic locations within and around Abuja, highways, and other major capital cities to bolster surveillance and deter criminal activities.
