A new commandant, Mathew Uboyi, has assumed office at the Edo Command headquarters of Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC), Benin.
This is contained in a statement issued by the command’s spokesperson, Efosa Ogbebor, in Abuja on Sunday.
Mr Ogbebor said Mr Aboyi, who, until his redeployment, was the commandant in charge of Discipline and Awards, Directorate of Administration, National Headquarters, Abuja, officially assumed duty at his new posting on Saturday.
He also said the commandant took over from Samuel Dan, who had been recalled to the national headquarters.
Mr Ogbebor said that during the handover ceremony, the outgoing commandant appreciated the management team and the command personnel for the maximum support and cooperation he enjoyed while piloting the command affairs.
He also called on command officers and men to extend the same gesture to his successor.
In his maiden address to the senior management officers of the command, the newly commandant reiterated his readiness to work with all and sundry.
He said this was to ensure a crime-free society and to fish out vandals from their hideouts, adding that his administration would not condone economic sabotage.
He advised officers and men to be punctual and avoid absenteeism.
