NIGERIAN WARNED AGAINST STRANGE CARS.

Commissioner of Police in charge of the Anti-Bomb Squad, Chris Olakpe has warned Nigerians to be wary of any strange car parked in their neighbourhood for too long.

Olakpe also cautioned Nigerians to report persons who suddenly develop interest in acquiring large quantities of acid.

He said these were minor ways of checking terrorism, said Everybody must be involved in community policing and Every strange movement in all areas should be watched closely.

People should beware of persons carrying and placing battery close to where people are gathered or pouring acid inside vehicles.

Police is not everywhere, therefore, every man should become police of everybody; policing should go beyond the corporate policeman.

He advised that because of the peculiar nature of the Federal Capital Territory, close circuit television should be placed in its streets.

Olakpe stressed that corporate organisations, hotels and big businesses should have CCTV in and around their premises.

According to him, this will help during investigations and it will put fear in criminals because they know they are being watched.

Olakpe said in the last 15 months, his men had detonated more than 30 bombs in the eastern part of country.

Olakpe said in the event of any blast, people in the vicinity should lie flat on the ground for about 30minutes to avoid being hit.
