Boko Haram: ‘Report Stubborn Children To Us’ – Police

The Nigeria Police Force has called on parents and guardians to report suspicious behaviour, even that of their stubborn children as they alone cannot solve the nation’s security problems.

Speaking during a meeting with Chief Security Officers of hotels, tertiary institutions and other organisations in Lagos State on Monday, the Deputy Inspector General of Police in charge of investigations, Mr. Peter Gana said Nigerians should always provide useful information to the police, adding that their identities will be kept secret.

According to Gana, the terrorists are living among us and that is why everyone should be watchful of their environment.

“Your neighbour might be your enemy and you might not know, so it is necessary we remain security conscious.

“Report strange objects and even your stubborn children. If not, you could be a victim of your child who is criminally minded,” he said.

He also said strange faces and vehicles parked for to long in an area should be reported and anyone who is not comfortable with coming forward with information could send an anonymous text message or e-mail to the nearest police station.

He added that it better to raise a false alarm than to keep quiet and something bad happens.

While noting that crowded places like motor parks had been the target of bomb blasts in recent times, he urged the National Union of Road Transport Workers to use the revenue it collected from its members to provide CCTV at their parks.
