Families Of 7 Slain NSCDC Officers Get Cheques, Automatic Job
Family members of the seven personnel of the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC), who were ambushed and killed by bandits in Birnin Gwari local government area of Kaduna State, have been offered automatic employment into the Service.
The corps also presented cheques of undisclosed amount of money to Next-of-Kins of the seven fallen heroes as a token of support pending the payment of their accrued benefits.
The Corps commandant-general, Dr. Ahmed Abubakar Audi, in a statement signed by the Service director of public relations, DCC Olusola Odumosu, disclosed this when he led top management team of NSCDC on a condolence visit to the bereaved families in Kaduna State.
Audi, who acknowledged losing gallant officers, who paid the supreme price in their line of duties prior to the Kaduna incident, said none of the previous occurrences rattled him like the Birnin-Gwari tragic incident.
He, however, announced that payment of death benefits and other entitlements due to the deceased officers were being processed through the office of the Minister of Interior to help ameliorate the pains of those they left behind.

The NSCDC boss, who further described the killing of the seven gallant officers as colossal, charged other personnel not to be deterred by the ugly incident, saying, instead, they should continue to put in their best for a more secured country.
He said, “Death is inevitable, it is heart touching losing the personnel.
Although, this is not the first time we are losing personnel, but it’s so painful that we lost seven personnel at a time.
“It is a great loss, that is why I am here personally, to encourage all of you, to continue to do your best and not give up.
He started that the Corps, under his watch, has been settling burial benefits, entitlements, accident and group life Insurance policies to personnel as and when due.
He said that upon assumption of duty as CG about two years ago, backlog of salaries and arrears had been cleared with a few pending, which would soon be settled.
The NSCDC commandant-general, who was visibly emotional during his address, also delivered the message of the Minister of Interior to the bereaved families.
He said, “the minister sent his condolences, and directed me to inform you that he is with you on this journey and would ensure that the federal government continues to support the Corps at all time.”
Furthermore, the CG announced the approval of one slot for each family as replacement of the slain officers as approved by the Minister of Interior, Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola.
“This is a Service that has its personnel in mind. It is my vision to champion the cause of promoting personnel welfare in the Corps. The minister has approved one slot each for you to replace your husbands.
“I have also directed the Kaduna State Commandant, Idris Yahaya, to liaise with you on getting your details across to us in Abuja,” CG Audi added.
The CG appreciated God for sparing the life of SCA Thomas Hassan, the only survivor of the attack, who was admitted in an undisclosed hospital following the attack but has since been discharged.
In order to encourage him and others, the CG announced his elevation to the rank of Inspector of Corps (IC) from Senior Corps Assistant (SCA) and immediately decorated him with his new rank even as he charged him to teach others the manoeuvring tactics used to survive such dangerous attack in order to minimise casualties in case of similar confrontation in the future.
He reiterated the commitment of the Corps towards collaborating with other security agencies in dealing with hoodlums in the language they understand in line with presidential directive.
Dr Audi commended President Muhammadu Buhari for his relentless effort towards providing relevant platforms to contain various security threats across the country.
Assistant commandant-general (ACG), Zone B, Muhammad Haruna, who received the CG in Kaduna, expressed appreciation on behalf of all the personnel from the zone for his welfare policy since his assumption of office.
He commended the effort of the CG in lightening the burdens of the deceased family members left behind, stressing that the visit no doubt encouraged, motivated and gave succour to the injured and broken hearted within and outside the Corps.
In his vote of thanks, representative of the deceased families, Mallam Baba Ladan, thanked the Minister of Interior, the CG, ACG Zone B, the Kaduna State Commandant and all officers and men nationwide for their prayers and for standing by the families during their period of grief.

Bandit Leader Bello Turji Seizes Nigerian Army Vehicles, Ammunition in Fierce Clash
Bandit Leader Bello Turji Seizes Nigerian Army Vehicles, Ammunition in Fierce Clash
Footage has surfaced online showing notorious bandit leader Bello Turji and his gang celebrating after capturing a Nigerian Army Armoured Personnel Carrier (APC) and a significant amount of ammunition. The incident was confirmed by counterinsurgency expert ZagaZola Makama, who provided details of the encounter.
According to Makama, the Nigerian Army had received intelligence about a high-level meeting of bandits within Bello Turji’s camp. In response, a team of soldiers, led by a young officer, was dispatched to the area to intercept the gathering. However, the operation quickly encountered challenges when one of the military vehicles became stuck in the marshy terrain, halting the troops’ progress.
Makama explained that the soldiers came under heavy fire from the bandits, triggering an intense gunfight that lasted several hours. Despite their efforts, heavy rainfall and poor weather conditions prevented air support from arriving in time to aid the soldiers.
In an attempt to retrieve the immobilized vehicle, the troops brought in a Mine-Resistant Ambush Protected (MRAP) vehicle, but it too became stuck in the mud. With reinforcements on the way, the situation remained critical, and the soldiers eventually had to withdraw, leaving behind the vehicles. Fortunately, no casualties were reported among the troops.
Hours later, Turji and his gang returned to the scene, celebrating their victory by firing shots into the air and boasting of their success in capturing the military vehicles.
As of now, the Nigerian Army has yet to officially comment on the incident.
Nigerian Soldier Mocks Cultists, Urges Men to Join Military
A Nigerian soldier, Abubakar Sadiq, has sparked conversations online after making a bold statement criticizing men who join cult groups, asserting that true strength lies in serving the nation through the military.
In a post shared on Facebook, Sadiq wrote, “Cultism is for small boys. Real men join the military,” challenging the masculinity and maturity of those involved in cultism.
His comment has garnered attention, with many social media users weighing in on the debate, some supporting his stance while others criticized his approach. Sadiq’s post underscores the ongoing efforts by military personnel to steer young men away from criminal activities and toward more disciplined, lawful careers.
Gov. Alia Demands Swift Rescue of 20 Kidnapped Medical Students in Benue
Benue State Governor Hyacinth Alia has called on security agencies to ramp up efforts in securing the immediate release of 20 medical students who were abducted within the state.
This appeal was made in a statement issued by Mr. Tersoo Kula, the Chief Press Secretary to the governor, and shared journalists on Saturday in Makurdi.
Governor Alia expressed strong condemnation of the abduction, which occurred on Thursday evening as the students were en route to Enugu State for the Federation of Catholic Medical and Dental Students (FECAMDS) Annual Convention. He emphasized that his administration would relentlessly pursue the elimination of criminal activities in Benue and warned the perpetrators to cease their operations or face the full force of the law.
The Benue Police Command confirmed that the kidnapped individuals include medical and dental students from the Universities of Jos and Maiduguri, along with a house officer, all of whom were traveling together when they were ambushed and kidnapped in Otukpo. The students were reportedly on their way to attend the FECAMDS convention when the unfortunate incident occurred.
