Commandant General of the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps, (NSCDC), Dr Ahmed Audi, has called on private security guards companies in the country to contribute their quota to national security by securing facilities in their beats and reporting suspicious activities and movement to the corps

He made the call during the presentation of operation licenses to 16 new private guards’ company operators, yesterday in Abuja.

“Many of you may not have considered that the process of getting this license will be this thorough but I am sure your personal experiences will make you appreciate how much the corps pays attention to details, he said. The VC noted that private guard companies can provide a front for criminal groups if not regulated therefore legislation must provide a clear distinction between private security companies and government outfits.

“With over 1, 000 registered private guards’ companies under the NSCDC, one can imagine the number of guards in each of these companies because almost all residences especially estates, offices and schools among others, have private security guards manning them and securing their locations.
