NSCDC heightens vigilance against Oodua Nation agitators
The Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC), Ondo State Command, has instructed divisional officers and tactical teams to remain on high alert and prevent any infiltration into the state by Oodua nation agitators.
Commandant Oluyemi Ibiloye issued this directive during the weekly muster parade, where the corps’ activities during the recent Eid-el Fitr celebration were evaluated.
Also, Ibiloye ordered the teams to be prepared for any other unruly individuals. In a statement released to journalists by the command’s spokesperson, Aidamenbor Daniel, in Akure on Monday, Ibiloye urged officers to maintain a proactive approach to their duties. He reminded them of the ongoing political activities in the state and emphasized the importance of professionalism and political neutrality in their operations.
“The intelligence department, armed squad, counter-terrorism unit, rapid response squad and operations are to be on red alert to ensure that the security breach that took place in Oyo State does not happen in Ondo State,” he said.
According to him, this has become imperative, especially now that various political parties are having their rallies in the state, with mixed crowds in attendance.
“The command wishes to reiterate its commitment to safeguarding lives and properties and ensuring the protection of critical national assets and infrastructure.
“We would do all within the ambits of the law to ensure the safety of all good and law-abiding citizens of Ondo State.
“For quick intervention and actionable intelligence sharing, the command’s quick response lines 08034027234, 08037871044 and 08032797388 are open for public use,” Ibiloye said.
