THE Commandant General of Nigeria Security and Civil Defence
Corps (NSCDC), Dr Ade Abolurin, has said the Lagos State Corps
Commandant, Mr Obafaiye Shem, did not commit any punishable offence on
the account of the recent television interview he granted, while he
debunked rumours making the rounds that he had been suspended.
Abolurin made this clarification on Wednesday, in Abuja, at the annual national cooperative society meeting of the corps.
He said if the Lagos State commandant was interviewed, and in the process lost his composure, that “did not call for sanction.”
It will be recalled that the popular slogan, “my oga at the top” joke recently emanated from the Channels Television interview granted the Lagos State Commandant of NSCDC, Mr Obafaiye Shem.
He said, “it is an internal measure; we will keep you posted; we are still on course because he has not committed any offence. If a person is being interviewed, and in the process the person could not compose himself, that does not result to a crime; it is a question of maturity,” he stated.
Abolurin, however, expressed determination to engage officers in more training and re-training.
He said, “You know I am an advocate of building skills, encouraging trainings, human development and capacity building. We are trying at all levels to ensure that our men are well trained and well articulated because training is supposed to be continuous,” he added.
President of the Cooperative, Deputy Corps Commandant, Abi David, said the NSCDC cooperative society had laudable plans to affect lives positively within the corps.
He said there was a plan to immediately commence building of the co-operative secretariat (comprising supermarket, store and five standard offices) through direct labour, which he added would be commissioned by their grand patron.
