Many have expressed dissatisfaction with the Federal Government’s response to the security concerns. They described the government’s reaction as sluggish.

Speaking with The ICIR, a resident of the Lugbe area of the FCT, George Awo, said he had lost faith in the government’s ability to deal with the situation in the city.

“The FCT is being taken over by terrorists, and it is quite a sad thing to watch. It feels like the government cannot handle this anymore. It’s such a shame that they could even threaten to abduct the President. How then should we, the ordinary citizens, feel?” he asked.

For Chizoba Anam, who works in a hairdressing saloon within the city centre and resides in Kubwa, a satellite town, the rising spate of insecurity resulted from government’s lack of interest in the welfare of the citizens.

“This government does not care about us. With these threats of kidnaping and terrorism going around, there is still nothing to show that the government cares or has the situation under control. People are dying everyday because of this same issue, yet there is nothing to show that the government is trying to address it,” she said.

In recent times, terrorists and bandits have launched a series of attacks within the FCT, including a jailbreak at the Kuje Medium Security Custodial Centre on July 5.

More than 800 inmates escaped during the incident, including over 60 suspected terrorists remanded in the facility.

Though the police and other security agencies have recaptured some escapees, many others are yet to be apprehended.

A terrorist group, the Islamic State West Africa Province (ISWAP) claimed responsibility for the attack, which left at least five people dead.

Three weeks after the jailbreak, gunmen suspected to be bandits killed eight soldiers of the Presidential Guards Brigade, who were on a patrol in the Bwari Area Council of the FCT.

The soldiers had been drafted to the area following a distress call from the management of the Nigerian Law School, situated in the area council.

According to the management, terrorists had dropped a letter threatening an attack on the institution.
