Nigeria Security and Civil Defense Corps (NSCDC) in Kwara
has pledged to sanitize hotels and clubs used for strip dancing and other vices
in the state.
The Commandant, Mr Adeyinka Ayinla, made the pledge on Thursday
in Ilorin when he paid courtesy visit to the state’s Commissioner for
Information, Alhaji Mahmud Ajeigbe. The commandant said he was newly posted to
the state and decided that it was important to partner with the Ministry of
Information in promoting peace and stability. He explained that the NSCDC would
commence investigation into issues deliberated on during courtesy visits to
stakeholders. The issues, he added, included strip-dancing in hotels, cultism,
kidnappings, ritual killings, oil diversion in Baruten Local Government and
Nigerian refugees crisis in the Mediterranean. Ayinla told the commissioner
that they were saddled with responsibility of partnering with many security
agencies to ensure peace and stability in the country. Earlier, Ajeigbe had
pledged the ministry’s readiness to partner with the corps. He, however, said
“everybody should be security conscious and the society needs to assist
security operatives in the area of intelligence.” NAN
