Amid terror alert rocking Abuja communities, residents of the Kurudu Police Estate in Abuja have staged a protest over what they described as intensified security threats by robbers, violation of the building plan and poor basic amenities.
According to The Nation, the protesters blocked the entrance of the police estate on Saturday, October 29. They prevented vehicular movement in and out of the estate to press home their demands.
They displayed placards with different inscriptions, calling for the immediate intervention of the minister of the federal capital territory (FCT), Muhammad Bello and the inspector general of police (IGP), Usman Baba.
There has been growing tension in Abuja metropolis over the security threat alert by some countries, who have told their nationals to leave the Nigeria capital.
The protesters are also singing different songs of displeasure.
One of the protesters and vice chairman of the Kurudu police estate owners and residents association, Oregbesan Olalekan, said the residents had written about 30 letters to the IGP through the office of the FCT commissioner of police, but nothing has come out from them.
Olalekan disclosed that armed robbers are disturbing the people in the estate while alleging that the contractor is mishandling the estate affairs.
