The recent developments by the FCT Command of Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps to review numerous dude promotion letters that has circulated round the files and folders of some personnel of the Command seems the heat is gathering and the undoing of the past administration evils is about to be uncovered'.... Such re screening gives more credence to the recent reports making rounds in the media as factual and unedited crime records of NSCDC past leadership and some of her crime oriented personnel who must not go unpunished.
A phone call was allegedly made to the sitting Commandant General of NSCDC by the latter insisting that the special promotion he conducted must not be tampered with. This has been part of the lobbying that was reported at the Headquarters of NSCDC to persuade the new Commandant General to ignore the call from some senior officers of the Corps who insisted on reversal of the charade special promotions and certificate verification of the NSCDC personnel.
Majority of the Officers and men of NSCDC have acquired fake University and NCE certificates amongst several other reported cases of forgeries and document thefts and such has led majority of them to assume the original ownership of the certificates they acquired whereby bearing names of the original owners especially at the National Headquarters of NSCDC. Few that are still undergoing various courses in schools, have also presented fake “to whom it may concern” with forged NYSC exclusion certificate to secure conversion & promotion at same time.
The Commandant General of NSCDC, Abdullahi M. Gana seems worried with the insinuations of certificate falsifications and indiscriminate promotion of staff of the organization in which the beneficiaries of the promotion bazaar jumped as much as four levels of ranks and cadres, making them senior to their contemporary in the system. Morale has been low since then, dedication to duty and has been reduced, the expected discipline will never come to bear again in this organization except justice, fairness and equity is enforced.
A huge amount of money was paid in its Millions by the former administration of NSCDC to the Civil Defence Immigrations Fire Prisons Board (CDIFPB) as bribe and pact of silence to achieve the height of this reckless special promotions for his own anointed candidates and to the detriments of several other personnel of the Corps and this explains why some restless staff of the Corps also resolved to approach any CDIFPB member or staff alive, either in service or retired with cash just to achieve get promotion either by the hook or the crook.
The suspicion that the new management is looking for a way to quietly address the menace before it finally gets the attention of the Federal Government may not be completely wrong because it seems they are not willing to do the right thing once and for all. It seems there are still going to be a way out for the most anointed sacred cows that have been allowed to keep their own special letters while some special promotion letters worth N200, 000.00 each were allegedly withdrawn from those without Godfathers the previous week.
The question on the lips of everyone are that, those special letters that were said to be genuinely issued by the past administration, what were the criteria’s that were used to adjudge them, how comes only those that were spiritually or by any other compromised means affiliated to the former boss got the special, some husband and wife working under same leadership got specially promoted, the wife got and the husband got, those they are in South Africa, London and United States without any regulated approval other than the verbal blessings of the former leadership also got specially promoted, these and more are the manners at which the promotion goes under Abolurin.
All hopes are not lost that the new leadership will be courageous to confront the evils of the latter and conquer it. It will be expected that those personnel who jumped gun to pay for any kind of promotions and have documented such against any regulations be dealt with accordingly. NSCDC cannot continue to lay hold to her paramilitary claims with crops of criminals, impersonators and undisciplined personnel.
According to the politicians in our climes, with much emphasis on the People Democratic Party, anti party activities are punishable by suspension and relief of duties as the case may be, it is expected that both the board staff and NSCDC personnel that have gone into trade should be investigated and dealt with according to the corrupt practices law of the land to serve as deterrent to others.
