The Commandant General of Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps, Ahmed Audi, has charged zonal and state commandants in the country, to step up their operational activities in securing the nation and safeguarding critical assets and infrastructure.
To this end, the NSCDC boss directed all state Commandants to strengthen their anti-vandalism drive by closing down more illegal refineries, arrest and prosecute oil thieves, illegal bunkering suspects, loading and transloading crude oil across borders.
Audi speaking in Abuja, said safeguarding the nation’s critical infrastructure is a task that must be done as it impacts directly on national prosperity, human capital development and survival of the people.
He warned that any state commandant who performed below expectation would be removed immediately without delay.
He gave a stern warning to all zonal and state commandants to
“Resist any attempt by criminals or any group of individuals to unleash terror and destroy the peace of Nigeria.
“The only way to justify your existence is to carry out your duties beyond reasonable doubt; our mandates are very clear, so, we must resist any attempt by criminal elements to subvert our peaceful coexistence and be able to show to Nigerians that we are collecting government salaries.
“All state Commandants must renew and strengthen their anti-vandalism drive by closing down more illegal refineries, arrest and prosecute oil thieves, illegal bunkering suspects and tankers loading, reloading and transloading crude oil across borders.
“Safeguarding the nation’s critical infrastructure is a task that must be done as it impacts directly on national prosperity, human capital development and survival of the people. Therefore, any state commandant that perform below expectation would be removed immediately without delay.”
The NSCDC boss further reminded the Corps formations of his vision to reinvigorate and reposition the Corps towards building a proactive organization that is knowledge driven, bearing in mind the need to improve on professionalism and operational efficiency.
