The Kwara State Command of the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) has deployed over 2,500 personnel across the state to forestall the breakdown of law and order before, during and after the yuletide season.
The deployment focuses on crucial areas prone to threats, including prayer grounds, worship centers, recreational facilities, motor parks, gardens, markets, shopping complexes, black spots and critical installations.
The State Commandant Umar Mohammed disclosed that the initiative is aimed at establishing coordinated actionable intelligence, deterring and addressing potential threats to ensure a secured environment for all.
The Public Relations Officer of the Command, ASC Ayoola Michael Shola in a statement, said that the Commandant directed Area Commanders, Divisional Officers and tactical commanders to beef-up security during the Christmas and New Year celebration to prevent any untoward situation in their areas of responsibility throughout the Christmas season and beyond.
He also charged them to emphasize the protection of critical national assets and infrastructure to check vandalism during the yuletide.
Commandant Umar reassures Kwara residents that NSCDC is operationally positioned to collaborate with sister security agencies and ensure a secure environment for a joyful and peaceful celebration.
He urged members of the public to stay watchful, be on high alert, and promptly report any suspicious activities or movements of suspected criminals to security agencies for necessary actions.
