Following the preparation for the May 29, 2015 inauguration of new administrations in the country, the Inspector-General of Police, Solomon Arase, has instructed all the top echelon of the Police Force to beef up security around vulnerable points nationwide.
This disclosure was made known in a statement on Thursday by the Force Public Relations Officer, Emmanuel Ojukwu, who revealed that this was necessary to ward off possible plans by insurgents to carry out violent and coordinated attacks on various installations and public places during the hand-over ceremony.
Infrastructures like filling stations, major hotels, National and State Houses of Assembly, Eagle Square, Abuja, were among others the vulnerable places to be safe guarded.
The statement noted that the police had perfected strategies to prepare a safe and secure ground for hitch-free inauguration of new governments nationwide.
