In preparation for the yuletide season and the annual Calabar Carnival, the Nigeria Security and Civil Defense Corps (NSCDC) has announced the deployment of over 1,800 personnel across the state. Charles Brown, the state commandant, disclosed this information in Calabar on Wednesday.

 

The deployment includes personnel from the intelligent and tactical units of the security agency. The primary objective is to ensure the safety and security of lives and property before, during, and after the festive period.
