Federal Capital Territory Minister Nyesom Wike has directed security forces and the Department of Development Control in Abuja to immediately dismantle unauthorized beer parlours in the Asokoro area. This decision came after a high-level security meeting involving the FCT Commissioner of Police and the Director of the Department of State Services revealed security concerns regarding these illegal establishments.
The minister emphasized that the FCT administration would take proactive steps to prevent potential criminal activities before they worsen. "We have intelligence on some individuals attempting to set up unapproved beer parlour businesses," Wike stated, adding that such operations are not approved and will not be tolerated. In response to the threat, Wike ordered the FCT Department of Development Control, alongside security agencies, to launch a clearance operation in the affected areas.
He stressed that publicizing this decision would inform residents of the government's commitment to maintaining law and order in the capital city.
