The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, has approved the establishment of three new police divisions in Kuje, Kwali, and Gwagwalada Area Councils.
The approval was granted during the FCT Executive Council meeting held last week.
Speaking to journalists after the meeting, the Director of the FCTA Security Services Department, Mr. Adamu Gwary, announced that the executive committee had sanctioned the construction of three new police divisional headquarters along with six-man staff quarters in the designated area councils.
According to him, the projects, valued at N3.648 billion, aim to strengthen security by ensuring that each of the six Area Councils in the FCT has at least two divisional police headquarters.
He noted that this initiative aligns with the minister’s commitment to enhancing security infrastructure and equipping law enforcement officers to effectively combat crime, particularly in the Area Councils and satellite towns.
