Corps not registered with us – NSCDC

The Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) has stated that the Peace Corps of Nigeria did not register with it.

NSCDC is the agency with powers under the Private Security Guard Companies Act to register private security companies.

When contacted on the status of the Peace Corps, the Public Relations Officer of the organisation, Emmanuel Oke, said the Peace Corps has not registered with them, although it carries out functions of private security guard.

He said the non-registration of the Peace Corps might be because the corps carries out other functions that are not security-related.

“Since they are waiting for assent to their bill, that might be the reason they continue to carry out their regular duties such as volunteerism and others,” he said.
