THE FCT Police Command has dispelled rumours making the rounds that an explosive device was discovered around Jabi Lake, in Abuja on Thursday.








A statement by Police Public Relations Officer, FCT Command, ASP Anjuguri Manzah said contrary to the unverified rumours, it is pertinent to state that findings by the Command Explosive Ordinance (EOD) unit revealed that the device in question was  an ultra sound flow metre used in measuring the volume of water that passes through a pipe.


He said the device was deployed by a team of engineers handling the Federal Capital Territory reduction of non-revenue water project.


Also , the Commissioner of Police FCT, CP Muhammad Mustafa has enjoined residents of the Federal Capital Territory to discard the rumours and go about their lawful businesses as the Command has put in place adequate security measures to protect them.


Similarly, the Command warned “violators of the ministerial ban on the operation of Commercial motorcycles (Okada) and tricycles (keke Napep) in the City centre to desist from it forthwith. All Divisional Police Officers in the Command have been directed to arrest all violators of the directive and prosecute them accordingly,” the statement said.
