The Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) has announced plans to recruit qualified Nigerian youths into the corps in 2025.
The Commandant-General of NSCDC, Dr. Ahmed Audi, made this known while commissioning the newly constructed NSCDC Bwari Divisional Office on Wednesday in Abuja.
Audi stated that the corps had received approval to recruit employable Nigerians into its ranks but noted that the exact date for the commencement of the exercise would be announced in due course.
“We are preparing to recruit. We appreciate Mr. President for the approval to recruit well-behaved Nigerians into the service,” he said.
He stated that the recruitment drive is expected to provide much-needed jobs for young Nigerians seeking careers in security and public service, which will strengthen the nation’s security apparatus.
The CG said that the commissioning of the Bwari Divisional Office is another milestone in the NSCDC’s efforts to expand its operational presence at the grassroots level.
Audi commended the Bwari Area Council for the initiative, stating that the new office would enhance security operations in the area.
“The corps is proud of you and poised to cooperate with you. We will give you all assistance in reciprocation of your action,” he assured.
He also urged other area councils to emulate Bwari and Kwali, both of which have provided new office buildings for NSCDC operations.
In his remark, the NSCDC FCT Commandant, Dr. Olusola Odumosu, emphasised the importance of local administrative support in strengthening security efforts.
He highlighted the role of community synergy in tackling security challenges and improving operational efficiency.
