FCT Police Deny Alleged Attack on Lt AM Yarima in Kubwa

The FCT Police Command has dismissed reports that Lieutenant AM Yarima was trailed by unidentified individuals in two unmarked Hilux vans in Kubwa on Sunday evening. Claims had circulated that the officer performed escape maneuvers to evade the pursuers.

Military sources had suggested that Yarima was followed from the NIPCO Station along the Kubwa Motorway to Gado Nasco Road and that an investigation was ongoing.

However, FCT Police spokesperson SP Josephine Adeh clarified: “The attention of the FCT Police Command has been drawn to publications circulating on social media alleging an attempted assassination on Lt Ahmed Yerima.

“The Command categorically states that no such incident has been reported or recorded anywhere within the Federal Capital Territory.

“The public is advised to disregard this false information and refrain from spreading unverified claims that could cause unnecessary panic.

“For the safety of all residents, the Command urges vigilance and encourages anyone who observes suspicious activity to report it to the nearest Police Division.”
