NSCDC Calls for Community Action Against Vandalism in FCT

The Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) has called for the cooperation of residents in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) to protect public infrastructure from vandalism. In a statement released on Monday, spokesperson DSC Monica Ajobi highlighted the importance of community involvement in safeguarding development projects, which are essential for democratic dividends.

Odumosu, a senior official, reiterated that every Nigerian has a responsibility to maintain security and that residents should feel a sense of ownership over public infrastructure. He warned that vandalism poses a serious threat to national development and that the NSCDC will respond swiftly to credible information regarding such acts.

The agency maintains a 24-hour surveillance system and will prosecute anyone apprehended for vandalizing public infrastructure. Additionally, Odumosu cautioned private security companies operating without valid licenses, stating that they would face sanctions if found non-compliant.

The NSCDC is committed to ensuring the safety of public assets and will take necessary actions against violators.
