Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>The Department of Defence Communication of the Nigerian Army on Thursday launched a toll-free line for individuals to report issues of insecurity in their communities across Taraba State.<\/p>\n

The initiative, according to the 6 Brigade acting Assistant Director of Army Public Relations, Captain Oni Olubodunde, is aimed at enhancing the responsiveness of security agencies to threats and incidents.<\/p>\n

Oni, who made the announcement via a circular made available to journalists in the state capital, identified the toll-free number as 0800020205.<\/p>\n

The decision, according to him, was necessitated by the directives from the Chief of Defence Staff, aimed at ensuring quick responses from security forces, especially the army, across the nooks and crannies of the country.<\/p>\n

The toll-free lines, he said, will be made available at the headquarters of all defence-led operations and the Defence Headquarters Joint Operations Centres.<\/p>\n

\u201cFollowing the Chief of Defence Staff\u2019s directives, the Department of Defence Communication has activated toll-free lines for all defence-led Joint Task Force operations. These lines are for individuals in their respective communities to report issues of insecurity,\u201d the statement stressed.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe lines will be accessible for emergencies and complaints at each Joint Task Force headquarters.\u201d<\/p>\n

The statement also urged the public to work round the clock to disseminate the toll-free number, 0800020205, to all the available platforms, as it would go a long way to assist in reporting incidents of insecurity in the state.<\/p>\n
