The Commandant of the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) has issued a stern warning to its officers in Kaduna State, vowing to dismiss any personnel found involved in job racketeering.

Speaking to staff at the NSCDC State Headquarters in Kaduna on Monday, Commandant Muhammadu Dansadau, represented by Deputy Commandant Kalu Ndukwe, emphasized the Corps’ role in safeguarding Nigerians and the urgent need to address the growing issue of job racketeering and financial scams.
