THE Edo State Commandant of the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC), Gbenga Agun, has reportedly slumped and died in Benin City.

Agun was said to have collapsed shortly after delivering his goodwill message at an event organised by the International Association of World Peace Advocates (IAWPA), held at the Bishop Kelly Pastoral Centre, off Airport Road, Benin City, where he was one of the awardees.
