Fake NCDC official arrested, quarantined in Ebonyi
The NSCDC Ebonyi Commandant, Lucy Samu, told the newsmen in Abakaliki on Sunday that the suspect had been quarantined to ascertain his COVID-19 status.
Samu said that Mbah was not an officer of the corps but an ‘impersonator,’ who wore NSCDC uniform to beat the state’s restriction of movement order. “He is also not a staff in the Ebonyi office or on our payroll. He wore the NSCDC uniform and paraded himself as our officer but he is not one of us,” she said.“This is to ascertain his COVID-19 status and if negative, he will be handed over to us for prosecution but if positive, will receive the necessary treatment before prosecution.
