Wike explained that the FCT administration has ensured the
presence of heavy security in Bwari and environs.
He said the security deployment was based on intelligence
reports from security agencies to ensure the safety of residents, including private
and public institutions located in the area.
“We didn’t want to take any chances at all, knowing fully
well the intelligence we were getting,” Wike said.
“So, that is why
there is so much security within Bwari area council.
“This is because if anything happens, it will be a setback
to the entire country and the FCT.”
Reiterating the administration’s support for the Nigerian
Law School, Wike promised to take into account the management’s request for the
construction of staff quarters and the procurement of vehicles.
“Luckily, the legal profession is my own constituency and
so, it will be out of place if they have problems and I won’t be able to
support. You should take it as granted that the FCT will support you,” Wike
said.
He directed the general counsel of the FCT administration to
liaise with the school management to see how the request for the staff quarters
would be captured in the FCTA’s 2024 statutory budget.
On the request for vehicles, the minister said that he would
look at available vehicles and make some available for the school.
