YULETIDE; OSUN  NSCDC DEPLOYS PERSONNEL, ASSURES HITCH FREE CELEBRATIONS

The Commandant, Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) Osun State Command, Agboola Sunday has directed Area Commanders and Divisional Officers across the state to identify strategic and vulnerable points in the state and deploy massively to ensure adequate security of lives and property before, during and after the yuletide. 

Commandant Agboola Sunday  who  gave this marching order during December  strategic monthly meeting with Area Commanders and Divisional Officers said the end of the year period usually witnesses a lot of criminal activities, hence, there is a need for all personnel to be on their toes in order to smoke out criminally–minded people who are hell-bent on frustrating  the peace and tranquility enjoyed by the residents of Osun State.

The Osun NSCDC boss, therefore, instructed the Area Commanders to make sure that their deployment covers all recreation centres, worship centres, shopping malls, motor parks, critical  national assets and infrastructure. He noted that  patrol teams and surveillance squads will be fully deployed throughout the period of celebrations, so all citizens can rest assured of security of their lives and property. 

Commandant Agboola further charged  the personnel  to strengthen their leadership capacity and operational strategies in order to be able to deal with various crimes associated with the end of the year.

While commending the officers for their resilience in fighting crime and criminalities during the outgoing year ,  Agboola urged them to tackle crimes  and all threats to national Security head on. He advised personnel to justify the trust reposed in the Corps by  members of the public.

‘Be reminded of the prevailing challenges facing the country, therefore, there  is a need  for you to work very hard so as to assist the system in achieving a secured and safe society," Agboola said.

 

He also appealed to members of the public to assist security agencies by providing intelligence that  could lead to the arrest of men of the underworld.  "Security is everybody’s business, be security conscious and when you suspect srange faces and movement in your environment, report to the nearest  security agency," Commandant Agboola said.

The Commandant, hereby, on behalf of the entire officers and men of Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) Osun State Command heartily rejoices with all Christians in the state as they celebrate this year’s Christmas . He encouraged them to propagate peace, demonstrate love, forgive one another   and be tolerant, as this is the only means of  promoting harmonious coexistence with fellow citizens irrespective of religion , ethnic or political inclinations.
