The Federal Capital Territory Administration (FCTA) has listed Abaji, Bwari and Kuje as the area councils that are worst hit by kidnapping.
This was disclosed by the Director of Administration and Finance, FCTA, Security Services Department, Ebele Molokwu, during the end of the year media briefing on the activities of the department.
According to her, major kidnapping incidents in the territory were usually from those councils.
She, however, revealed that there are some isolated cases in the other area councils.
Molokwu pointed out that the councils share a border with some states noted for kidnapping, adding that when the bandits come to strike, they will run back to those states.
She said the administration was determined to check both kidnapping and one chance syndicate in the territory.
On his part, the Director of the Department, Adamu Gwary, said the security committee had been divided into two, the kinetic- made up of core security agencies and the non-kinetic- involving the traditional rulers and other relevant stakeholders.
