The Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps has warned that it will not hesitate to ensure the full wrath of the law is visited on vandals over destruction of government critical infrastructure in Akwa Ibom State.
The commandant warned vandals, hoodlums and all criminals to stay clear of Akwa Ibom as the state would no longer be conducive for their activities. The commandant, while reviewing activities of the corps in 2022 said that the command made several arrests of criminals who were involved in illegal dealing on petroleum products and impounded trucks used for the operations.
“The corps has been able to carry out its constitutional mandate in Akwa Ibom state, which is protection and safeguarding national critical asset. During the year under review, the Corps singlehandedly and in collaboration with other security agencies arrested quite a number of persons found to have been involved in illegal possession and dealing with petroleum products in the state.
“In human trafficking, very recently, towards the end of the year, we rescued a child from the state that was sold for slavery in Cameroon, arrested and prosecuted the suspect,” he said.
