To ensure safety of citizens as terror threats looms in the nations capital, the Inspector-General of Police, Usman Baba has reiterated the commitment of the Nigeria Police Force, distributing security emergency numbers to the public.

The IGP noted that concerted efforts with other security agencies are being made, to ensure the safety of all residents within the country.

Force spokesperson, Olumuyiwa Adejobi revealed in a statement late Thursday that Baba emphasised this while charging all strategic police managers in charge of police commands and tactical formations within the country to beef up security in their respective jurisdictions, especially in the FCT.
