New year, NSCDC urges Kaduna residents to keep vigilance, obey COVID-19 protocols

 


The Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC), Kaduna State Command has advised Kaduna residents to always watch out for crime and criminality and report same to the Corps for urgent action.

The NSCDC tasked the residents to ensure vigilance and abide by COVID-19 protocols as they celebrate 2021 New Year.

In a statement on Thursday, the state Public Relations Officer of the Command, ASC Orndiir Terzungwe said: “the state Commandant made the call in response to some unfortunate incidents which occurred before and during the Christmas festivities and the need to forestall the recurrence of similar ugly happenings.”

“It is regrettable that in spite of tight security measures put in place, some unrepentant miscreants still indulge in such menace.”

“Notwithstanding, however, it is our responsibility and we will continue in the fight against all forms of crime to ensure that security and peace are restored to pave the way for development to thrive.

“In view of this determination, the command despite deploying over 2,500 officers and men across the state is calling on residents to support us and other agencies with useful information by reporting acts and persons whose activities are capable of threatening the society.

“Community and religious leaders with members of different communities should unite and ensure enforcement of the ban on fireworks before, during and after the festive period.

“Recall that in some situations, criminals take advantage of the use of fireworks to unleash terror as it occurred at Ungwan Zawu, Chikun Local Government Area on the eve of this year’s Christmas, during which six inhabitants including a pregnant woman were kidnapped without suspicion by other inhabitants.” The statement said

The state Commandant who had earlier directed Area Commanders and Divisional Officers to ensure full mobilisation and deployment of personnel reiterated the need to safeguard lives and properties in the state.

He re-echoed the need for parents and guardians to monitor activities of their children, warning the youths to shun violence and eschew crimes.

Nnamdi Kanu Sends Important Message To IPOB Members From Detention

    The detained leader of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, has sent an important message to his followers over the Biafra movement. The embattled separatist according to one of his brothers, Prince Kanu Meme, has asked his disciples to trust and comply with directives from the Directorate of State (DOS). Boasting his belief in the separatist movement’s administrative structure, Kanu said “I’m DOS and DOS is me”.  Naija News understands that the DOS, headed by diaspora-based Chika Edoziem has been contending with authority issues since Kanu’s arrest in Kenya in June 2021. It has been observed that IPOB is in disintegration following Nnamdi Kanu’s rearrest and detention. The present situation of the Biafran movement can be likened to that of sheep without a shepherd. However, Kanu in a conversation with his sib...

IPOB: The Nigerian Civil War, commonly known as the Biafran War

  THE HISTORY OF BIAFRA AND NIGERIA WAR  Israel, Nigeria and the Biafra civil war    The Nigerian Civil War , commonly known as the Biafran War (6 July 1967 – 15 January 1970), was a war fought between the government of Nigeria and the secessionist state of Biafra. Biafra represented nationalist aspirations of the Igbo people, whose leadership felt they could no longer coexist with the Northern-dominated federal government. The conflict resulted from political, economic, ethnic, cultural and religious tensions which preceded Britain's formal decolonization of Nigeria from 1960 to 1963. Immediate causes of the war in 1966 included a military coup, a counter-coup and persecution of Igbo living in Northern Nigeria.
