Insecurity: Govt. to beef up security around Nasarawa Eggon-Engineer Sule
....urges political appointees to be more cautious

Nasarawa State Governor, Engineer Abdullahi Sule, has warned that his administration will take stringent actions against perpetrators of crime and criminality in the state, stressing that government will beef up security around Nasarawa Eggon.

This is just as Engineer Sule urged political appointees and other top government functionaries, to be a little more cautious while going about their responsibilities.

The Governor made this known while chairing the quarterly meeting of the Nasarawa Enabling Business Environment Council, at the Government House, on Tuesday.

Reacting over the incidence involving the state Commissioner of Information, Mallam Yakubu Lawal, who was kidnapped last night in Nasarawa Eggon by unknown gunmen, Engineer Sule said efforts are on top gear to draft additional security to Nasarawa Eggon to safeguard the lives of citizens.

He further urged top government officials in the state to ensure they have adequate security protection, adding that, the state Commissioner of Police, Adesina Soyemi, has expressed readiness to provide protection to government officials.

The Governor decried the spade of kidnapping in Nasarawa Eggon saying three kidnappings within a short period, is unfortunate but that government is determined to handle the situation.

"I urge you, first and foremost, to be cautious and secondly, seek for protection also from your own end.

"I have no idea that some of our commissioners don't have police attached to them until today. While other commissioners are having three or four policemen because of the situation they find themselves, other commissioners don't even want it. This is a very wrong approach. We should seek police protection. The CP is more than happy to support you," he stated.

Engineer Sule assured however that, his administration will address the spade of kidnappings in Nasarawa Eggo
