‘Crime has drastically reduced in FCT’ – Wike

The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, on Monday said that crime has drastically reduced in the FCT.

Wike made the claim in Monday during his monthly media parley in Abuja.

He said, “It is our responsibility to protect life. It’s not just because a colleague of yours is involved, and that means it’s a spike.

“But if another person dies, you won’t bother about it. If you give us statistics say look that to say look, security agencies have done well. The rate of crime drastically reduced. That does not mean that you cannot see any crime being committed.

“All over the world, every day you wake up, crime is being committed here and there. So when you talk about the spike, what is your statistics? Just because a colleague of yours, something happened yesterday.”
