The Nasarawa State commissioner of Police, CP Shetima Mohammed-Jauro, has said that there are no Boko Haram splinter group members in the state.
CP Mohammed-Jauro stated at a briefing that the command’s attention was drawn to social media reports alleging that a faction of the terrorist group, known as “Wulo-Wulo,” had moved into parts of the North Central region.
He, however, clarified that after a discreet and coordinated investigation conducted in collaboration with other security agencies and local vigilante groups, no such presence was found anywhere in Nasarawa State.
The Commissioner assured residents that security had been heightened with intensified surveillance, particularly around border communities.
He reiterated the command’s commitment to strengthening community policing and intelligence gathering.
