The Commissioner of Police for the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Ahmed Sanusi, has issued a two-week ultimatum to seventeen Divisional Police Officers (DPOs) to significantly reduce robbery and other criminal activities within Abuja. The directive mandates the DPOs to take immediate and decisive action to address the escalating crime rates in their respective jurisdictions. Failure to demonstrate substantial improvements by the deadline will reportedly result in unspecified consequences for the officers involved. This action comes amid growing public concern regarding security in the nation’s capital. The police commissioner’s order signals a heightened focus on law enforcement and a commitment to restoring public safety. Details of specific strategies were not disclosed, but the emphasis is on a rapid and measurable reduction in criminal incidents. The directive aims to reassure residents and deter further criminal activity.
