Welcoming Officers and Men into the new year 2016 at the
Corps National Headquarters Abuja, the Commandant General of the Nigeria
Security and Civil Defence Corps , Abdullahi Gana Muhammadu, has charged the
personnel to be dedicated and committed
in the discharge of their duties and ensure effective execution of the Corps
mandate, especially in the protection of Critical Infrastructure and National
assets.
According to the CG, "I sincerely appreciate and
salute your gallant efforts, doggedness and courage in the course of your service to
the Nation, you have risen up to the challenge, making various degrees of
sacrifice in the defence of our constitutional mandate. It is paramount that we
redouble our commitment to duty, professionalism and support for Government
programmes at all time".
He urges personnel to shun all acts of corrupt
indulgencies and negative tendencies that may affect their productivity,
encouraging them to live and embrace the highest ethical and professional
standards.
Gana seized the opportunity to appreciate the Civil Populace
for the confidence reposed on the Corps and cautioned them to desist from
patronizing illegal Private Guard Companies , taking into cognisance the present
Security challenges in the country.
He therefore, admonished the citizenry to always be vigilant, to report any strange face(s)
or act that may negate the safety of the populace to relevant security Agencies
closest to them.
Abdullahi unfolded
his new year package to the Private
Guard companies by offering them and their personnel free training to enhance
capacity building in the Civil Defence College of Security Management,
Abeokuta, Ogun State.
The Civil Defence helmsman made it point clear that the Corps will not tolerate illegality,
sabotage and espionage among the PGCs, stating that the NSCDC is ready to
prosecute any Private Guard Company found wanting in the discharge of their
duty , charging them also, that failure on their part to submit security
reports in their domain of operations will lead to the withdrawal of their
licenses.
Gana implored them to work hand in hand with Security
Agencies nationwide and report appropriately any act inimical to the Security of
life and property of the citizenry.
The CG wished all Nigerians a very prosperous new
year 2016.
