The FCT Police Command has warned against the use of firecrackers (Knockouts) during the upcoming Christmas and New Year celebrations.

This ban is implemented to ensure the safety of all residents and to protect lives and property throughout the festive season.

Commissioner of Police, Olatunji Disu, emphasized that the use of these items can lead to unnecessary panic and anxiety within the community. Additionally, they present significant risks, including fire hazards and other preventable incidents.

Speaking in a statement on Saturday by the command public relations officer, Josephine Adeh, said Violators, including sellers and users of firecrackers and fireworks, will be subject to arrest and prosecution under the law.

Community leaders and residents are also encouraged to raise awareness about the potential dangers associated with these items.

Residents are urged to remain vigilant and report any suspicious activities or violations.

The FCT Police Command is committed to maintaining law and order during this festive period. We encourage everyone to celebrate responsibly, wishing all a peaceful and joyful Christmas and New Year.
