The Nigerian Bar Association NBA in Bwari, FCT, has expressed concern over the escalating levels of insecurity in the area council and its surrounding areas.
The Chairman of the branch of the NBA Paul Daudu disclosed this on Monday in Abuja, noting that the association is deeply concerned about the escalating levels of insecurity in Bwari and its surrounding areas.
He said it is disheartening to witness the erosion of peace in the area and the constant threat faced by its residents on a daily basis.
Daudu noted that the residents of the community can no longer sleep with two eyes closed even with the council being home to some critical national assets like JAMB, Nigerian Law School Headquarters, Veritas University amongst others.
The Chairman therefore called on relevant law enforcement agencies, particularly the Nigerian Police Force to take immediate and decisive actions to restore law and order in the area.
He urged the security agencies to also implement sustainable strategies to combat the menace.
Daudu reiterated that the association remains committed to working together with relevant stakeholders, including the government, traditional leaders, community organizations, and security agencies, to ensure the restoration of peace and security in Bwari, while urging the residents to remain vigilant.
