IGP Commends EOD Personnel for Expertise

Following a recent incident involving the dicovery and successful detonation of an Improvised Explosive Device (IED) on 31st July, 2024, by the Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) and Chemical, Biological, Radiological, and Nuclear (CBRN) Unit of the Nigeria Police Force, along Mobolaji Bank Anthony Way, Ikeja, Lagos, the Nigeria Police Force wishes to alert all citizens to remain vigilant and report any suspicious activities or objectsl to the nearest police station.

All members of the public are urged to stay alert and be aware of their surroundings, reporting any unusual or suspicious behaviour. Where one encounters an unfamiliar or suspicious object, please do not touch or move it. Rather, keep a safe distance and immediately inform the Police.

The Nigeria Police reiterates that its foremost responsibility is to protect the lives and property of our citizens. While the Nigeria Police Force is working tirelessly to investigate further the source of the bearers of the IED planted in Lagos, dismantle their plans and apprehend those involved, the cooperation of well-meaning members of the public is vital in these critical times.

It’s pertinent to state that the intentions of the criminally minded individuals, who acted like terrorists for planting the IEDs at that strategic location, were purely to destroy houses, facilties and innocent citizens who may transverse along the route where the items were recovered. It is not out of point, however, to be vigilant to detect such unusual packages or parcels in our vicinity to avert any ugly incidences.

Akwa Ibom Governor Umo Eno has fulfilled his pledge to renovate the family home of Abigail Fredrick, a Nollywood make-up artist who tragically passed away on April 13 due to a boating accident that also claimed the lives of actor Junior Pope and three others.

On Friday, the governor, represented by Mr. Frank Archibong, the Commissioner for Local Government and Chieftaincy Affairs, presented a newly remodeled and fully furnished six-bedroom house to Abigail’s family in Ikot Udoma, Eket Local Government Area. This gesture was part of the promise made following Abigail’s untimely death.

In addition to the renovation, Governor Eno provided financial support of 1 million Naira to the family and another 1 million Naira to assist with the education of Abigail’s two younger sisters. After the incident, the governor personally visited the grieving family and offered automatic employment to Abigail’s elder sister, along with a commitment to help her siblings pursue higher education.

Archibong emphasized that the governor’s actions reflect genuine compassion and support for the family during their difficult time.

Mr. Nsikanabasi Umoekpo, the Special Assistant to the Governor on Humanitarian Services, noted that the renovation was completed about a month ago, with the governor insisting it be furnished prior to its presentation.

Mr. Frederick Edet, Abigail’s father, expressed gratitude on behalf of the family, thanking the governor for his unwavering support during their time of sorrow.
