NEMA has denied looting of its warehouse but residents on Sunday in Abuja

 

This is contained in a statement signed by Manzo Ezekiel, NEMA Press Unit, on Sunday in FCT and made available to newsmen.

The attention of the National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA) has been drawn to media reports on Sunday alleging that the Agency’s warehouse was looted by some hoodlums in Abuja.

This is to clarify that the looted warehouse does not belong to NEMA. However, the Agency sympathizes with owners of the looted facility.

To forestall any security breach at NEMA facilities, the Director General Mustapha Habib Ahmed has directed Zonal Directors and Heads of Operations to strengthen security in and around the Agency’s offices and warehouses nationwide.

 

Meanwhile,  a report by SaharaReporters had alleged that some residents of the Federal Capital Territory have raided and plundered a warehouse belonging to the National Emergency Management Agency of Nigeria (NEMA).

SaharaReporters learnt that the warehouse was raided on Sunday morning.

The warehouse is located in Karimo, Phase 3 Region of the FCT, Abuja.

SaharaReporters gathered that the residents carted away foodstuffs and other items.

 

Personnel of the Nigeria Police Force in Abuja have been deployed to the area to disperse the looters and secure the building, SaharaReporters learnt.

 

The spokesperson for the FCT Police Command, Josephine Adeh, confirmed the incident to SaharaReporters.

 

She, however, added that the situation had been brought under control.

 

“The situation is now under control,” she said.
