Considering the much impact Civil Defense Corps of Nigeria is generally contributing to the Environmental Security and Curbing any direct or indirect threat to it, the paramilitary which came into active existence since 1967, during Civil-War, training Officers and Volunteers , to know how to protect the public from air-raids, through to the period of 1970 when the Federal Government engaged them as intelligence and under-cover agents. And later on in 2003 when the National Assembly passed the bill, to ratify their full-fledged endorsement , as another arm of the Federal Government Security Operatives, assented by President Olusegun Obasanjo. And later in 2007 when they were allowed to add some defensive equipment to their kits.
N.S.C.D.C. as an organized corps have greatly and immensely proven to be up to the task, in bringing the expected improvement, to their responsibilities, routine of work and allegiance to their fatherland hence News track-Online deem it fit to interview the Oyo State Command N.S.C.D.C. Public Relation Officer; D.S.C. Oluwole Olusegun representing Oyo State Command under the able Commandant John Oyedokun Adewoye.
In our interview with him ; the eloquent and experienced Public Relation Officer for N.S.C.D.C. Oyo State Command expressively highlighted on the various reasons and points why Civil Defense Corps generally in Nigeria have been making a great difference, reiterating on the different but series of foreign and home trainings being given to both the junior and senior N.S.C.D.C. officers, and which had helped them built a all-round fitness and alertness with mental acuity, physical agility to perform excellently as a combatant-army and proficient security officers.
Here he affirmed that the officers of the N.S.C.D.C. have been fortunate enough to be trained under different arms of the paramilitary organizations, in existence before its establishment , such as the Army; in arms squad, Federal Fire Services ; in Fire Incident Management , Nigerian Prison Service and others of the like.
And considering the departmentalization of the Nigeria Security and Civil Defense Corps into many Units and Sections like Crisis-Management , Conflict- Resolution and Reconciliation, Anti-Fraud Section, Ago-Ranger Unit, Solid-Minerals Unit to mention few, the training under the various units, sections and arms of the Nigerian Paramilitary and Security Operative; has added more knowledge, skills, expertise to their experience as a combatant officers and this cannot be quantified as an additional knowledge in diversification, making the officers committed, combatant, loyal, diligent, hardworking, to carry out their roles, duties and routine of work, to the members of the public and their fatherland.
Aside the numerous incentives to improve on their condition of service; which the Federal Government and the management of N.S.C.D.C. are giving priority some of the effective approaches and incentives made available to the officers of N.S.C.D.C. have even enabled their commitment and sincerity of purpose, to their responsibilities and allegiance to their fatherland.
Meanwhile, the 'team spirit' by which the officers relate with one another is immeasurably contagious and effectively managed.
Yet the discipline among them is constant and cleverly resonant, with different watchwords being often uphold and recited intermittently to jolt and caution the officers to their oath of allegiance, such as "Take a bribe and die; compromise and be kidnapped", Do good to the good people; do bad to the bad people"
However, the Oyo State Command Public Relation Officer; D.S.C. Oluwole Olusegun expressed further that the government and management of N.S.C.D.C. are trying hence, the officers of the corps are unalloyed and committed, to their various assignments, given by the Federal Government , but he advised the members of the public to continue to support, by giving timely information and be their brothers keepers.
Nevertheless, he admonished the officers generally to know that the country is their constituency, to which they must be patriotic and always being constant in their allegiance to their fatherland and protection of the people and properties.
By and Large it was Thomas Edison; the man behind the secrecy to electricity discovery who after nine-hundred and ninety-nine experiments to make hundredth came through to having the code to a perfect notion in generating electricity. Such is the expected achievement so far by the Federal Government in the emergence and establishment of Civil Defense Corps ; that have been making much impact and great value to the business and essence of what Environmental Security is all about.
