The
Defence Headquarters on Friday assured Nigerians that their lives and property
are safe and secured wherever they choose to reside in the nation.
The Director Defence Information, John Enenche,
gave the assurance in a statement.
Mr. Enenche, a major general, said this
followed “so many requests in the recent past, to know from the military about
the safety of Nigerians living in parts of the country, other than their
aboriginal habitats.
“As such, it behoves on the Defence
Headquarters to reassure the general public that all lives and property in
Nigeria are secured and safe at any location.
“Thus, the Armed Forces of Nigeria are
constantly on surveillance, in collaboration with other security agencies, to
curb acts capable of distorting the peace,’’ he said.
The defence spokesman, therefore, urged the
general public to “report suspicious movements and any act that point to
creating any situation of insecurity to lives and property to the nearest
security agency”.
He also urged the public to reach the Nigerian
Army Call Centre, short code 193 and email: na.callcentre@army.mil.org, in
case of emergency.
“The Armed Forces hereby reaffirms its
commitment to protecting the lives and property of all Nigerians living in any
part of the country.
“Therefore, all should go about their normal
life wherever they are living without fear or intimidation,’’ Mr. Enenche said.
