…Intelligence community on top of situation -Defence
Residents and the general public in the nation’s Federal Capital Territory, Abuja have been urged to be calm and take necessary precautions against the security alert last night in Abuja.
The Department of State Service (DSS) handed the call for calm following the issuance of travel advisories by the United States (U.S.) Embassy in Abuja and the United Kingdom to their citizens in Nigeria.
In a statement, the U.S. and the UK warned of terror attacks and specified some places in the FCT.
The statement mentioned the targets in Abuja to include government buildings, places of worship, law enforcement facilities, and international organisations.
Others are schools, markets, shopping malls, hotels, bars, restaurants, athletic gatherings, and transport terminals.
But the spokesman of the DSS, Dr. Peter Afunanya in the statement urged residents not to panic.
The statement reads; “The Department of State Services (DSS) has received several enquiries relating to the security advisory issued by the US Embassy in Abuja, today, 23/10/22. “The public may recall that the Service had variously issued similar warnings in the past.
“While advising that necessary precautions are taken by all and sundry, the populace is enjoined to remain alert and assist security agencies with useful information regarding threats and suspicious criminal acts around them.
“Meanwhile, the Service calls for calm as it works with other law enforcement agencies and stakeholders to maintain peace and order in and beyond Abuja”.
Also last night a source from the Defence HQ said there was no cause for alarm as necessary precautions had been taken to protect lives and properties not only in the FCT but across the nation.
“The intelligence community have been on top of the situation”, the source assured.
Diplomatic missions or embassies usually issue travel advice to their citizens on security situations in their host countries.
Nigeria is fighting an insurgency mainly in the northeast, but in July the Islamic State claimed responsibility for a raid on a prison in Abuja, which freed around 440 inmates, raising fears that insurgents were venturing from their enclaves
