I wish to use this medium to bring to the notice of the
relevant authorities in the Federal Capital Territory of the increasing
activities of CRIMINALS such as Armed robbers and Agberos (pick pockets) around
the Julius Berger Junction in Abuja.
On daily basis, pedestrians are attacked by these miscreants who are now permanently living in the
abandoned Julius Berger Recreational Park situated behind the TOTAL filling Station in Wuse Zone 6,Abuja.
The population of these criminals is increasing by the day, with their numbers ranging from between 20 and 30.
Their attacks are mostly on ladies and men carrying bags returning from works or religious activities between the hours of 5pm to 11pm and those going to work early in the morning.
Their criminal activities have over the last 2 months spread across Wuse Zone 6, Abuja, with a recent attack on the home of two retired Assistant Controller General of Immigration. During the attack, the hand of the Immigration officer on duty almost had his hand chopped off by these criminals.
The Security agencies should carryout a major and regular raid on this Abandoned Julius Berger Recreational Park and F.C.T.A. should compel Julius Berger to put into use this park or their Ownership license revoked.
I hope the security agents will be proactive on this information considering that this area is strategy in the way and manner F.C.T is viewed by Visitors.
