JUST IN: NSCDC deploys 28,000 operatives nationwide for Eid-el-Kabir security

The Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) has deployed over 28,000 operatives nationwide to ensure peace and security during the Eid-el-Kabir celebration.

 

According to the Commandant General of the Corps, Dr. Ahmed Audi, the large-scale deployment is part of the corps’ ongoing efforts to protect critical national assets and infrastructure, as well as safeguard lives and property.

 

Operatives from several specialized units have been mobilised, including the Intelligence Directorate, Special Female Squad, Commandant General’s Special Intelligence Squad, Mining Marshals, Quick Response Tactical Team, Counter Terrorism Unit, Operations Department, and Special Weapon and Tactics.

 

Audi warned of potential criminal activities during the festive period and stressed the need to forestall any threats posed by unscrupulous elements. He called for enhanced intelligence gathering through community engagement and highlighted the importance of credible tip-offs in supporting successful security operations.

 

The NSCDC boss charged the 36 state commandants and the FCT Command to foster effective synergy and collaboration with other security agencies and local communities to address security challenges, including insurgency, banditry, and kidnapping.

 

Audi also urged the public to support the NSCDC’s efforts and called on private security operators to contribute by sharing intelligence and strengthening information networks, especially during emergencies.
