Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps, NSCDC, has called for total and loyal commitment among its officers and men to collectively fight against the insecurity bedeviling the country.

NSCDC Commandant in Oyo State, Mr Iskilu Akinsanya stated this at the end of the year party of the command held at its headquarters, in Agodi Ibadan.

He said as the command is celebrating the outgoing year, distinguished officers have also been recognised for a job well done during the year.

Mr Iskilu said some gallant officers have been performing optimally, hence the need for others to cultivate the habit of working professional in other for them to be recognised.

The NSCDC Commandant in Oyo State said the officers that died in active service this year would always be remembered for their brave acts while alive.

While declaring the event open, NSCDC Deputy Commander General, Mr Shem Obafaiye said the command had performed optimally in the year 2020 despite numerous challenges.
