NSCDC to Enhance Security in Akwa Ibom

The Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC), Akwa Ibom State Command, has urged its officers to enhance their performance to ensure quality service delivery.

State Commandant Mr. Eluyemi Eluwade delivered this charge during the third edition of the Commandant Quarterly Conference held in Ikot Ekpene on Wednesday. The conference aimed to evaluate the corps’ performance, assess security threats in the state, and develop actionable solutions.

Eluwade emphasized that the leadership of the NSCDC is committed to regularly reviewing key performance indicators in accordance with the corps’ standard operating procedures. 

At the conference, participants will be divided into syndicates, each led by a Deputy Commandant, to discuss critical issues such as farmers-herders clashes, the rising rates of kidnapping and robbery, logistical challenges impacting operational efficiency, and issues of indiscipline.

He said, “The syndicates will brainstorm on causes, challenges, effects, and workable solutions. Resolutions reached from the brainstorming sessions will be forwarded to higher authorities and the State Government, who will facilitate their seamless implementation.”

Eluwade also encouraged officers to remain diligent and committed, promising to reward the top three divisions, the best Area Command, and the best Department at the next conference.

Mr. John Cleton, the Chairman of Ikot Ekpene LGA and the event’s chairman praised the NSCDC for its role in maintaining peace and security in the state. He commended the Commandant’s efforts in elevating the NSCDC to an elite status among security agencies.
