Protest: NSCDC orders personnel to protect critical infrastructures
The NSCDC has directed all State Commandants and their personnel to safeguard the nation’s critical infrastructure in light of the upcoming nationwide protest.
NSCDC Commandant General Ahmed Abubakar Audi gave the directive on Friday, July 26, according to a statement by the Corps’ PRO Babawale Afolabi. “The NSCDC is a Federal Government paramilitary agency with statutory roles and responsibilities, and we remain the lead agency in the protection of all critical national assets and infrastructure across the nation.
Consequently, I have directed all State Commandants, Provosts of Colleges, and Heads of various formations to be on red alert, ensuring that the protection of all critical infrastructure and assets is taken very seriously.
Our commitment to the protection of the lives and property of the Nigerian people is paramount & we will not fold our arms & allow some fifth columnists to instigate Nigerians and its youth against the Federal Government under the pretence of staging demonstrations or protests.
