Plateau State Enhances Security with CCTV Installation
The government of Plateau State has initiated the installation of Closed-Circuit Television (CCTV) cameras and floodlights across various communities in Jos to enhance security amid ongoing attacks and criminal activities. Joyce Ramnap, the State Commissioner for Information and Communication, stated that the devices are intended to curb crime and reduce darkness in the area.
The installation covers communities such as Anguwan Rukuba, Bauchi Road, University of Jos Mado community, Yelwan Zangam, and Gangare. Security expert Aliyu Alkasim praised the move as a step towards modernizing security measures, although he expressed concerns about the sustainability of the infrastructure.
Christopher Piwuna, President of ASUU, questioned the effectiveness of existing CCTV systems and the necessary infrastructure to support them. Khalid Muhammed expressed skepticism about the project's potential success, suggesting that support for security personnel might be more beneficial than relying solely on technology.
