Mr Emmanuel Ocheja, the Commandant of the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) Osun Command, has urged recruits undergoing training at the state command, to be disciplined and obey instructions during their training exercise.
According to a statement by the state NSCDC spokesperson, Atanda Olabisi, Ocheja gave the charge on Wednesday, while addressing recruited personnel who commenced their training on Monday.
The commandant also urged them to efficiently perform all tasks given to them during the training as this would help them to be highly skilled in the service of their father land.
He commended the Commandant General of the NSCDC, Ahmed Audi, for the timely recruitment of fresh hands into the system to defend their father land.
He said: “The recruitment and the training being imparted here would help curb incessant criminal activities in the country, as our dear nation is facing security challenges occasioned by the activities of Boko Haram terrorist, armed bandits, kidnappers, vandals, and other criminal activities.”
He, therefore, informed the recruited personnel that their mental, physical and moral alertness are highly needed adding that the prevailing insecurity can be surmounted by the collective resolve and efforts of everyone.
”During this training, put your certificates aside, obey all legitimate orders issued by your instructors.
“This is a regimented environment, it is a place different from where you are coming from. You are expected to be highly disciplined and obedient,” he said.
