Kano: Former Head of State, Gen. Abdulsalami Abubakar (rtd.), has urged Nigerians to rally behind security agencies in the fight against kidnapping and other violent crimes.
Abubakar stated on Saturday that collaboration was essential for security personnel to maintain law and order.
He called on the citizens to report persons of dubious character to the nearest security outpost for swift action.
The appeal comes amid heightened insecurity, including mass abductions and attacks on schools and communities in several parts of the country.
Abubakar described the “war front” as pervasive, affecting every segment of society.
He emphasised that collective action was required to tackle the menace, stressing the need for robust synergy among security agencies, government and the public.
“We must all work together to end abductions in our schools and on our highways, and to restore peace, progress and political stability,” he said.
