He has a health challenge and barely has just a few months to retire from the Nigeria Police. The police authorities have deployed the tactical team who went and combed the area to no avail. They have also sent some of us, but we are aware that they have not done enough to rescue him.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe People of the state have complained about the rising rate of insecurity in the state and demanding for redeployment of the Commissioner of Police in the state. Everyday they say Abia is peaceful and secure, but <a href=\"https:\/\/www.withinnigeria.com\/news\/2022\/08\/13\/kidnappers-targeting-women-arrested-in-benue-hideout-demolished\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">kidnappers<\/a> are having a field day abducting and killing people.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey\u2019re saying all those things because we the affected police officers are not speaking up. There are serious security challenges all over the state, especially the Umunneochi\/Isuikwuato axis. I don\u2019t understand why the authorities are playing politics with reality. Why can\u2019t they accept that there\u2019s a problem and call for help? What\u2019s happening all over the country is also here, but our own is suppressed and underreported.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The state Police Public Relations Officer, SP Geoffrey Ogbonna, was yet to comment on the incident,as at the time of filing this report.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Divisional Crime Officer, DCO, Isuochi Police station in Umunneochi council area of Abia State, simply identified as DSP Dickson, has been kidnapped by gunmen.
