The Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps, FCT Commandant Olusola Odumosu, has ordered personnel of the Command to immediately swing into action and implement the ministerial directive to treat manhole thieves as armed robbers.
FCT minister, Nyesom Wike, had on assumption of office on Monday asked the NSCDC to stop treating manhole thieves as common thieves but deal with them as armed robbers.
In a statement on Tuesday, Command spokesperson, Comfort Okomanyi, said “The FCT Minister has promised to provide us with the necessary tools to work and we must give him good results because as your Commandant, I wouldn’t tolerate any excuses for failure.
“Strategies, structures, and infrastructural development will be put in place and so we can’t sit back and watch all efforts go down the drain,” the Commandant said.
Recall Lagos Panorama reported 15th August that the newly deployed Commandant of the Federal Capital Territory, (FCT), command of the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps, (NSCDC), Olusola Odumosu, has said that the command will begin manhunt of infrastructure vandals and manhole thieves in Abuja.
