In a swift response to recent headlines claiming a supposed invasion of a police station in Borno State by repentant Boko Haram members, the Borno State Police Command has stepped forward to clarify the situation.
Contrary to sensationalized reports, the Command confirms that there was no attempted invasion or attack on any police facility.
Instead, a proactive joint raid conducted in the Kasuwan Fara Area of Maiduguri led to the arrest of eight suspects and the seizure of a staggering 426 assorted bottles of dry gin and spirits, underscoring the Command’s commitment to curbing crime in Maiduguri.
The area in question, known for criminal activities, has seen significant interventions by law enforcement and the state government, with a ban on unlawful activities enhancing safety and security for residents.
Addressing the misleading narrative, ASP Daso Nahum Kenneth, Police Public Relations Officer of the Borno State Police Command, urged the public to dismiss such unfounded claims.
He emphasized that peace reigns in Borno, allowing citizens to pursue their daily activities without disruption.
The Command’s swift action and transparent communication stand as a testament to their dedication to maintaining peace and security in the region, dismissing any attempts to derail progress towards Borno’s restoration.
