The Force Criminal Investigation Department (FCID) Annex, Lagos, has extended warm greetings to Muslims on the occasion of Eid-el-Fitr, marking the successful completion of the holy month of Ramadan.
The FCID’s spokesperson, ASP Aminat Mayegun, conveyed the message in a statement on Thursday in Lagos.

Reaffirming the department’s commitment to security, she assured the public of its readiness to safeguard lives and property before, during, and after the celebrations.
