The Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) has acquired a proposed new staff college site and facility in Lamingo community, Jos-North Local Government Area of Plateau State.

A statement by NSCDC Director, Public Relations Office, Mr Olusola Odumosu, on Thursday in Abuja, revealed that the proposed Command and staff college is to take off in 2023.

Mr Odumosu also said that the NSCDC Commandant General, (CG), Dr Ahmed Audi, after an inspection tour to the site, stated that the college will be mainly for the training of senior officers of the Corps, especially officers expected to take over Command responsibilities.

“The Command course will be for Chief Superintendent of Corps (CSC), Assistant Commandant of Corps (ACC) and Deputy Commandant of Corps (DCC).

“These are personnel who are being prepared to take over Command responsibilities, so that, by the time they become Commandants, they must have been well equipped.

“And the knowledge obtained at the Command course level would be transmitted down to the administration of Commands,” he said.

The CG added that the Command course will consider the training of officers from Chief Superintendent of Corps (CSC) to Deputy Commandant of Corps (DCC), while Staff course will involve Assistant Superintendent of Corps (ASCII) to Chief Superintendent of Corps (CSC).

He, however, said that courses for inspectorate cadre and other ranks which will be regimental and a bit of capacity building and drills will be carried out in NSCDC Katsina college.

The Corps’ helmsman expressed profound gratitude to Gov. Simon Lalong of Plateau State, for donating the facilities to the Corps and promised to put the facilities into judicious use for it to serve as a training Institution.

Dr Audi also appreciated the people of the State and the Izere Chiefdom for accepting to accommodate the Corps in their community.
