| CG with officers of the NSCDC |
The Commandant General of the Nigeria Security and
Civil Defence Corps, Abdullahi Gana Muhammadu has warned personnel of the Corps
to be of good behaviour by shunning acts that could tarnish the image of the
Corps. He reprimanded the Officers and Men, that crime and criminalities should
not be mentioned among them as discipline personnel whose primary
responsibility is to ''defend the defenceless''.
The
Commandant General made this known while addressing the personnel following the
ugly incident that occurred in Lagos where it was reported that the Corps
personnel beat up a tanker driver.
Gana,
while reacting to the ugly incidence emphasised that, ''personnel must be of
good behaviour by obeying the Public Service rules as stipulated in the Public
Service Charter and Scheme of Service''. He frowned at what happened and described
the whole situation as being unfortunate and uncalled for, thereby, stating
that the perpetrators will not go unpunished as they have been arrested,
detained, panel of inquiry set up to investigate the case and the victims are
to appear before the panel for their testimonies and meanwhile as a discipline
Corps, the affected personnel have been suspended pending the conclusion of the
case by the panel.
He
affirmed that, those found guilty will be dealt with hence there is no sacred
cow in the Corps; cautioning that the rule of law and strict discipline
that NSCDC is known for, must be maintained to achieve the core mandate of the
Corps and to justify the confidence repose on her by the populace.
The CG called on well-meaning Officers and
members of the public not to lose confidence on the Corps, he also urged officers
who are doing well to continue as their reward is on the way and those found
wanting of any criminal offences will be shown the way out.
He reiterated that the Corps is standing
on a very strong ground and cannot be rubbished by anybody no matter where such
person is coming from. That the Corps must continue to match on till all
the ills of the society are totally eradicated, therefore, anyone that is not
ready to work in line with the Corps dictates should step aside.
