Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Nyesom Wike, has summoned an emergency security meeting amid the heightened insecurity currently bedevilling the Federal Capital Territory, FCT.<\/p>\n

Wike disclosed this while speaking at an event, where he assured FCT residents of their safety.<\/p>\n

He said the government was working to support security agents with all that they need to tackle insecurity.<\/p>\n

Among those in attendance are heads of security agencies in the FCT, top officials of the Federal Capital Territory Administration (FCTA), council chairmen as well as traditional rulers.<\/p>\n

Wike warned the area council chairmen to be alive to their responsibility at the local level.<\/p>\n

In the past few weeks, bandits have ravaged some parts of the FCT, abducting residents from their homes.<\/p>\n

The incidents which have created tension became heightened when some residents, including a 13-year-old Secondary School student, were killed over failure to meet the deadline for a ransom payment.<\/p>\n
