The Niger Police Command says it has
deployed 800 personnel to flush out
kidnappers and armed robbers terrorising
residents of Suleja, Tafa, Gurara and Lapai
Local Government Areas.
According to NTA, the police spokesman,
Mr Bala Elkalla, said on Tuesday in Minna,
that the forces were drawn from the
Intelligence Unit, Police Mobile Force,
Special Anti-robbery Squad and Anti-
kidnapping Squad.
The statement said that the operational
headquarters of the command had
temporarily relocated to Lambata in Gurara
Local Government, and vowed to rid the
state of criminals and their activities.
The command advised the public to
provide useful information that would help
in tracking down criminals, saying that a
reward system had been introduced to
encourage people to do that.
“Anybody with useful information leading to the
arrest of criminals and recovery of firearms will
receive a cash reward,” he said.
