NSCDC seals 50 illegal security firms

-
The Lagos State Command of the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps says it has sealed 50 security companies illegally operating in Lagos State and arrested their personnel.
The command said it also intercepted 175,145 litres of petroleum products and arrested 234 suspects in 2015 across the state.

The state Commandant of the corps, Gabriel Abafi, stated this on Tuesday at the command’s headquarters in Ikeja.
He said, “The command arrested 234 suspects in 2015. Also, 175,145 litres of petroleum products were recovered and have been transferred to the appropriate authorities.

“We ensured that all the private guards companies within Lagos State complied with the rules guiding them. About 50 illegally operating ones were sealed. The personnel of those companies were also arrested.”
The commandant said 46 cases, including landlord-tenant and marital issues, were also resolved by the corps during the year.

Abafi said three of his men got missing in January last year during a gun duel with some pipeline vandals in the Ikorodu area.
He said the command would focus more on the protection of waterways across the state this year to curtail bank robberies perpetrated through the route.
