Amid security tension across the country, the Nigerian Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC), has given the reasons while there is reduction in the vandalism of national assets.

Rivers State Commandant NSCDC, Mr Muktar Lawal, said that the reduction in the rates of vandalism of the Critical National Assets and Infrastructure was not unconnected with the proactive measures taken by NSCDC.

For prompt and immediate response, the state’s Command of NSCDC, tasked residents on the need to report all civil matters such as landed issues, indebtedness, marital and others in order to avoid escalations.

The Commandant who spoke in a statement signed by the Assistant Commandant, Public Relations Officer of the Command, Mr Oguntuase Michael in Port Harcourt, pointed out that the success story as evidenced during the yuletide season across the state and its environs was as a result of the strong synergy and collaborative efforts of NSCDC and other security agencies.

Muktar reechoed the Command’s commitment to rid the Rivers state of every form of economic wastage and sabotage.

“The tempo would be sustained until all forms of civil unrest are wiped out, the Command will leave no stone unturned to ensure residents sleep with their two eyes closed.

“Anti vandal team had since been on 24/7 security checks on pipelines and other oil installations within the state.

Also, he pointed out that its Peace and Conflict Resolutions (PCR) Unit and Agro Rangers Team had kick-started a rigorous peace campaigns within the state, to ensure that peace was maintained in every area.

“The state commandant also states his commitment of not relenting in taking every necessary steps and measures to ensure safety of both lives and property of the residents as well as the Critical National Assets and Infrastructure in the state.”

He called on residents to restrain from the indiscriminate use of firecrackers within residential areas and warned that the command would not spare any youth caught using such to cause mayhem to peace loving people of the state.
