The Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps has emerged as the best Leadership Government Agency of the year 2022.
The Guardian reported that the corps received the award in Abuja, during the 14th Edition of the Leadership Annual Conference and Awards, tagged: “Credible Elections and An Economy in Transition”.
Receiving the award, the Commandant General, NSCDC, associate professor Ahmed Audi, appreciated the management the organisers and all stakeholders for recognizing the Corps and hoped for more of such recognitions to boost the morale of its officers.
Audi also appreciated the President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari (Ret’d.), for allocating the right amenities for the agency to adequately protect critical national assets and the country at large.
Affirming that the recognition will further encourage its personnel to work effectively for adequate security during and after the forthcoming elections, the CG also revealed that the corps had embarked on training and retraining of personnel to ensure proper electoral conduct during the elections.
