Be security conscious during the Sallah – Omeri

As Nigerian Muslims join other faithful around the world to mark this year’s Eidel Fitri, the National Information Centre has called on all citizens and residents to be security conscious and observe movements around their neighbourhood to ensure that no one takes advantage of the celebration to wreak havoc on lives and properties.
The Cordinator of the Centre, Mike Omeri, in a Sallah message, thanked the Muslim community in Nigeria and around the world for their steadfast supplication to Allah during the month long Ramadan, especially in the quest to end insurgency in the country and safely return the girls of Government Girls Secondary School, Chibok in Borno State abducted by insurgents.
Omeri urged Nigerians to report suspicious persons and movements to nearby security agencies or simply call 112, a security code meant for citizens to pass information to the security forces or any of the help numbers issued by the police, state security and other agencies.
The Cordinator also urged Nigerians to continue to support the movernment and the security forces, especially in the fight to end insurgency in the country, adding that government’s effort is beginning to yield the desired result in all spheres of the operation.
Omeri also urged Muslims to remember to pray for members of the armed forces and other security forces in battle in several parts of the world, especially those facing the common enemy of the nation in the fight against insurgency.
