The Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps, NSCDC, Osun State Command, says it has deployed 2,350 personnel across the state to provide adequate security during the Yuletide season.
The spokesperson of NSCDC in Osun, Kehinde Adeleke, said this in a statement made available to newsmen on Wednesday in Osogbo.
She said that the personnel have been mandated to provide covert/overt intelligence and 24 hours surveillance so as to nip criminal activities in the bud.
According to her, the NSCDC State Commandant, Sunday Agboola, has equally assured members of the public of a massive security arrangement in the state.
Adeleke noted that that personnel would be deployed to worship centres, market places, recreation centres, critical infrastructure and some other flashpoints in the state.
“The commandant therefore warned miscreants who are planning to cause breakdown of law and order to have a change of mind, as they would be made to face the full wrath of the law.” she said
Adeleke quoted Agboola as saying, “NSCDC would collaborate with other sister agencies to provide adequate security in Osun State.”
He also urged personnel who have been deployed for the assignment to be civil, but firm in the discharge of their duties.
