The Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps in Benue has alerted the public tf the existence of employment racket within the command.
The NSCDC Commandant, Mr. Shuaibu Jibrin, said on Thursday, October 27th, that the
racket had been collecting money from applicants in the guise of
offering them employment into the organisation.
Jibrin, however, assured that its searchlights had already been beamed
on the perpetrators while explaining that all recruitment exercises by
the organisation are properly advertised through the mass media.
"Currently, the NSCDC is not carrying out any recruitment, the
NSCDC recruits based on certain criteria and merit which is always
advertised through the mass media."
He said applicants had never
been charged during NSCDC’s recruitment exercises, and assured that
those behind the syndicate would soon be apprehended and brought to
justice. He also expressed regrets about the frequent vandalism
of public utilities, especially pipelines and cables by unpatriotic
citizens.
The commandant said the command had stepped up its
surveillance activities over such public utilities to prevent the
operations of the vandals. He disclosed that three vandals had already been apprehended and were facing trial in the state.
He, however, advised authorities of the electricity company covering
the state to ensure proper identification of its staff working on
transformers and handling underground cables to avoid arrest by his men.
