The leadership of the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) has dismissed as unauthorized and without recourse to the Corps constituted authority, a letter signed and sent to a Member of the House of Representatives, Hon. Shima Peller, informing him of the withdrawal of officials of the NSCDC assigned to him.
A signed statement, Wednesday, by the Director Public Relations, NSCDC, National Headquarters, Abuja, DCC Odumosu Olusola said the Commandant General, Dr. Ahmed Abubakar Audi, mni, frowns at the withdrawal of officials assigned to the lawmaker.
According to the statement, “not only did the officer in question lack the power to do such but he was also found to have acted on his whims without clearance.”
The Commandant General has therefore directed reinstatement of the withdrawn officers with a compliment of necessary courtesies to the Hon. Peller.
Stallion Times reports that the lawmaker had on Tuesday at the floor of the House of Representatives proposed the scrapping of the NSCDC in a bill titled “National Security and Civil Defence Corps (Repeal and Transition) Bill 2022″.
