The CP expressed concern that the misleading video has been passed around to sow fear and misinformation among FCT residents.

The Police Commissioner, in a statement issued by the spokesperson of the FCT Police Command, SP Josephine Adeh, said, “Forensic analysis conducted by the Nigeria Police Force – National Cybercrime Centre has revealed startling findings regarding a video circulating purportedly depicting security concerns in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT).”

The police added that, “contrary to initial impressions, the investigation confirms that the incident depicted occurred in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, and was posted by a South African individual on X (formerly Twitter) on April 22nd, 2024. The video falsely claims the necessity of carrying handguns for travel in Ethiopia.

“It is deeply concerning that this misleading video has been misappropriated to sow fear and misinformation among residents of the FCT.”

We urge the public to remain vigilant and discerning in consuming information, especially in the digital sphere,” the statement added.
