The decision follows a motion raised by Ismail Dabo, a lawmaker from Bauchi state, after his aide, Nimah Sulaiman, was kidnapped and murdered by ‘one chance’ operators at Bannex junction in Wuse 2 on October 17.

Dabo expressed concern over the escalating rate of abductions and criminal activity in both the suburbs and the city centre, blaming the use of unregistered and unpainted taxis for facilitating these crimes.

He stressed the need for immediate government action to restore safety to the nation’s capital, which has become increasingly unsafe for residents.

“This heinous crime has sent shockwaves through our community, confirming the escalating insecurity in the FCT. It is our collective responsibility as lawmakers to ensure the safety and security of our citizens,” he said.

The House adopted the motion, calling for the public officials to appear before the committees on FCT, police affairs, and national security and intelligence to address the security crisis.
