FCT Police require prior approval for camping, hiking over security concerns

The Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Police Command has advised the public, particularly youth groups and hiking enthusiasts, to obtain police permission before embarking on camping or hiking activities.

In a statement on Tuesday, the FCT Police Public Relations Officer, SP Josephine Adeh, said the directive is due to “recent security concerns and the need to ensure the safety of all participants.”;

The FCT Commissioner of Police, CP Ajao Adewale, stressed that failing to notify the police could expose participants to security threats, as remote locations may be prone to criminal activities.

“The Command stressed the importance of notifying the police and liaising with them to obtain guidance on safe routes and adequate security arrangements,”; Adewale said,

“The FCT Police are committed to working with the public to minimize risks by offering expert advice on intended locations and ensuring proper monitoring and protection where necessary.”; He added.

He also urged organizers to ensure that all participants are accounted for throughout the duration of outdoor activities to prevent cases of missing persons or other emergencies.

“To request security coverage, obtain advice on safe routes, or report any suspicious activities, members of the public are encouraged to contact the FCT Police Command,”; the statement added.

The emergency contact numbers provided for such notifications include 08032003913, 08061581938, 07057337653, and 08028940883.
