Uchechukwu Okeh: CAMPAIGN AGAINST TERRORISM IN THE SOUTH-EAST AND SOUTH-SOUTH REGION . Know your neigbours and persons living in your house or your surrounding environment . Observe what your neigbour normally brings home at night or moves away in the early morning . Landlords should conduct background checks on all prospective tenants, and create avenues for regular meetings with their tanants . Community leaders, working in conjunction with the police, are encouraged to form neigbourhood associations and periodically meet to appraise security situation in their areas . Owners of uncompleted buildings must clear them of undesirable persons . Park owners, garage and shoping malls operators must ensure that they thoroughly scan, search, and take stock of all vehicles parked within and around the premises . Hotels and hospitality industries should always screen their guests properly and ensure that they obtain accurate details of all guests . Draw the attention of the police to vehicles parked or abandoned by unknown persons . Do not allow unknown persons to drop or abandon bags, boxes, cartons, fruit barrows, trolleys, articles of trade, or any wrapped or sealed containers around your premises . Legitimate sellers of chemicals such as fertilizer, ammonium products, acid, etc should be wary of persons they sell such products to. All suspicious orders should be immediately reported to the security agencies . Always be conscious of your surroundings and immediately inform the police of any unexplained and dangerous objects where any such is found . Never accept to take possession of or watch over any bag or object kept by unknown person(s) . Be vigilant at public places as objects such as bombs can be kept by unscrupulous persons in unattended bags, packages, containers, cars, etc . In the unforeseen circumstances of a bomb blast, stay away from the blast scene. Avoid the temptation of rushing to the scene (except you work with any of the Security or Emergency Management Agencies). Remember , terrorists often detonate secondary explosives in order to harm innocent by-standers and lookers. My dear Igboists, Lets Unite against Terrorism in the South-east and South-south region and in Africa in general. Remember that we have no other land to run to. Always report suspicious persons or movements within your neigbourhood to the police or other security agencies through available mean of communication Always make use of these POLICE DISTRESS CALL NUMBERS but avoid the abuse of them.
