The Vigilante Group of Nigeria, VGN has solicited for concerted efforts in ensuring adequate security of lives and property in the country.
Commander General of the group Usman Jahun made the call in an interview in Abuja, noting that security should be the concern of all citizens.
He said the citizens should identify the roles they can play in ensuring that the country is adequately secured, emphasising that the government, media, businessmen, various unions, among others, also have roles to play.
Jahun also called on the public to cooperate with security agencies to ensure that we achieve our targets in securing the communities, noting that despite obvious challenges, the organisation had contributed immensely towards ensuring security in the country.
The Commander General decried that of the non-assent of the bill on vigilante groups has affected its operations, but have tried hard to be self-sustaining.
Jahun urged government at all levels to assist vigilante groups, through the provision of logistics, trainings among other incentives needed for improved services.
