Abuja Is Safest Capital City In The World With Lowest Crime Rates – IGP Adamu

The Inspector General of Police (IGP), Mohammed Adamu, on Monday said that a comprehensive analysis of crime statistics on major cities across the world has revealed that Abuja has one of the lowest crime rates and remains indisputably one of the safest capital cities in the world.  

This is just as the IGP stated unequivocally that the Federal Capital Territory is safe, secure and not under any form of siege.

The IGP’s assertion follows speculations in some sections of the media, particularly the Social Media, of an upsurge in crime rate within and around the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Abuja, adding that like other climes across the World, the country has its security challenges.

The IGP further said that the Federal Capital Territory Police Command has a robust anti-crime architecture which is continually rejigged to effectively tackle prevailing and emerging crimes.

He therefore enjoined all law-abiding citizens and visitors alike to go about their lawful endeavours without any fear or apprehension.
