The Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) has directed its personnel to demonstrate professionalism, integrity, and dedication while carrying out their duties including the protection of Very Important Persons (VIPs).
The directive was disclosed in a statement issued by the National Public Relations Officer of the Corps, Afolabi Babawale, from the NSCDC National Headquarters.
The statement explained that the Commandant General of the NSCDC, Prof. Ahmed Abubakar Audi, made the call during his keynote address at a three-day Leadership and Management Workshop on VIP protection held in Abuja.
Participants at the intensive training included State Commandants, VIP unit commanders, and armourers drawn from different parts of the country.
Prof. Audi described the responsibility of VIP protection assigned to the Corps by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, as a critical national duty that must be handled with utmost seriousness. He warned that the leadership of the Corps would not condone any form of indiscipline or misconduct.
According to him, any officer found undermining the implementation of the VIP protection mandate would face appropriate sanctions.
He stressed that the assignment must be executed in a manner that earns public trust and reflects positively on the government and the Corps.
