THE Petroleum and Natural Gas Senior Staff Association of Nigeria (PENGASSAN) on Sunday urged the Federal Government to recruit more people into security agencies to curb crime.
PENGASSAN gave the advice in a communiqué in Lagos, signed by its Public Relations Officer, Mr Fortune Obi.
The union, after its National Executive Council (NEC) meeting, said that security agencies were already overstretched in maintenance of security and peace in the country.
It also said that the Army and the Police should reduce the number of operatives attached to politicians and few influential people to boost those in their operational areas.
”We recognise the commitment of the security agencies in ensuring security of lives and properties within the country,” the union said.
It condemned the attacks by Boko Haram insurgents, especially the recent abduction of 110 girls of Government Girls College, Dapchi, Yobe State.
The staff association urged the government, through the various security agencies, to ensure that the Dapchi girls and all those in captivity regain freedom and are re-united with their families. (NAN)
