Wuro-Chekke, a sprawling residential community in Yola South Local Government Area of Adamawa State, has banned scavengers from operating anywhere within its territory.
The Wuro-Chekke village head said it was an obligation of all community members to be security conscious and ensure the safety of the community by supporting vigilantes, police and other security agencies with vital information that will assist in driving away criminals from the community.
He warned informants of criminals to refrain from their acts or relocate from the community.
In their separate remarks, the Divisional Police Officer in charge of Yola South, Mohammed Sani, and the Divisional Crime Officer of Wuro-Chekke, Gabriel Markus, solicited the support of members of the public to enable them to check the activities of criminals.
