Paul Daudu, the chairman of the Bwari branch of the NBA (Cradle Bar), on Monday in Abuja lamented that the incessant insecurity hampered the economic activities of its members in the area council.
“In recent months, there has been a disturbing increase in criminal activities ranging from armed robbery, kidnapping, and other violent crimes,” Mr Daudu said.
He said it is disheartening to witness the erosion of peace in the area and the constant threat its residents face daily.
“We can no longer sleep with closed eyes even with the council being home to some critical national assets like JAMB, Nigerian Law School Headquarters, and Veritas University, amongst others,” said Mr Daudu.
He added, “We call upon the relevant law enforcement agencies, particularly the Nigerian Police Force, to take immediate and decisive actions to restore law and order in the area.”
The chairman said the association remains committed to working with relevant stakeholders, including the government, traditional leaders, community organisations, and security agencies, to ensure the restoration of peace and security in Bwari.
“We implore the government at all levels to increase investments in the security sector and provide necessary resources and logistical support to law enforcement agencies,” Mr Daudu added.
He said that as an association of legal practitioners, they firmly believe in upholding the rule of law and guaranteeing the safety and security of every individual within our jurisdiction.
“We appeal to our members and other residents of Bwari and its surrounding areas to remain vigilant and proactive in reporting any suspicious activities to the appropriate authorities,” Mr Daudu said.
