Space from Criminals

The acting Inspector-General of Police, Mohammed Adamu, has
ordered the immediate deployment of the Kaduna State Commissioner
of Police, Ahmed Abdulrahaman, to the Force Intelligence Bureau,
Force headquarters, Abuja.

This was sequel to the rising incidences of banditry and
kidnapping along the Abuja-Kaduna Expressway and the failure of the
Kaduna Police Command under Abdulrahman to curb the wave of
criminality.

Hundreds of commuters have been reportedly abducted by criminal
gangs operating in Forests within Kaduna State.

The latest incident involved the abduction of the Secretary,
Universal Basic Education Commission, Dr. Mohammed Abubakar and his
daughter, Yesmin Mohammed, who were kidnapped along Abuja-Kaduna
Expressway on Monday.

While Abubakar and his daughter has since been rescued, his
driver was killed during the attack.

CP Aji Ali Janga, who, until now, was the Commissioner of Police
in charge of Bauchi State, has been directed to take over as the
new CP in Kaduna Command.
