Air Commodore Nasir Folaji of the Nigerian Air Force, 671 Detachment Ibadan, made the pledge during a courtesy visit to the state Command of NSCDC at Agodi Ibadan. 

He noted that the security of Oyo State can only be achieved through persistent cooperation between the two organizations as it is done in the past.

“Security of the Nation is the duty of all security operatives, therefore there should be a synergy of efforts between the two security agencies”.

Reacting, the Oyo State Commandant of the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps, Mr. Micheal Adaralewa noted that the era of inter-agency rivalry was over, as securing the lives and properties of the people of Oyo state and the nation at large was the common goal.
