The Commissioner of Police in charge of the FCT, Mr Ajao Adewale, has reaffirmed the police’s commitment to tightening border security to curb insecurity nationwide.

Adewale gave the assurance on Wednesday in Abuja at the 2025 security summit, organised by the Police Community Relations Committee (PCRC), FCT Command.

The theme of the summit was “Enhancing Citizens’ Engagement and Community Security for National Security.”

He noted that securing Nigeria’s borders is crucial to addressing the root causes of insecurity.

He assured that the police, in collaboration with relevant agencies, would intensify surveillance and preventive measures across border communities.

“Porous borders are part of our problem. However, the issue of insecurity begins with the individual.

“When we speak of national security, it encompasses food security, spiritual security, job security, these are key components of what we define as national security,” he said. (NAN)
