The Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) has cleared the
Lagos State Commandant of the Corps, Mr Obafaiye Shem, of any
‘wrongdoing’ over his inability to name the organisation’s website
during a live interview on Channels Television recently.
The Commandant-General of the Corps, Dr. Ade Abolurin, made this
known wednesday in Abuja, at the annual national cooperative corps,
saying that Shem did not commit any crime in the blunder, contrary to
the rumours making the rounds that he has been suspended.
Abolurin, who did not confirm whether the commandant was on
suspension or not, said if Shem was being interviewed and in the process
lost his composure, it should not call for a sanction.
When approached by journalists to know his position on the matter,
the NSCDC boss said: “It is an internal measure, we will keep you
posted. We are still on course because he has not committed any offence.
If a person is being interviewed and in the process he could not
comport himself that does not result to a crime, it is a question of
maturity,” he stated. The popular slogan, ‘My oga at the top’ joke
recently emanated from the Channels interview with Shem had since gone
viral in all the social networking sites.
Speaking further, Abolurin gave an insight on what the corps was
doing to engage its officers in more training and retraining exercise,
especially for internal security operations.
“You know I am an advocate of building skills, encouraging training
human development and capacity building. We are trying at all level to
ensure that our men are well trained, well articulated because training
is suppose to be continuous,” he added.
So, all rumours going about, saying Oga at the top was suspeneded or even SACKED can now peacefully die off until further statements from the NSCDC .
