December 23, 2023 2 min read

The Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) Osun State Command, has decorated 746 promoted officers in the command.

In a statement by the state’s NSCDC spokesperson, ASC Adeleke Kehinde, on Saturday, the decoration ceremony was done on Friday for β€œSix Deputy Commandants of Corps, 33 Assistant Commandants of Corps,
β€œ36 Chief Superintendents of Corps, 120 Superintendents of Corps, 127 Deputy Superintendents of Corps, 295 Assistant Superintendents of Corps (I) and 129 Assistant Suprintendent of corps (II).”

Adeleke said the Osun State Commandant of NSCDC, Agboola Sunday, decorated the officers at the state command headquarters in Osogbo.

She said the commandant described promotion as an award for excellence, dedication, hardwork, loyalty and discipline.

β€œHe, therefore, appealed to the newly promoted officers to see their promotion as another step in their bright career.

β€œHe lauded the Minister of Interior, Dr Olubunmi Tunji-Ojo and the NSCDC Commandant-General, Dr Ahmed Audi, for approving the promotion of 21, 385 for NSCDC,

β€œHe said they have made an indelible mark on the Corps members which would be difficult for anyone to surpass.” Adeleke stated

She said the newly promoted officers were urged to justify their promotion, just as they were charged to imbibe selflessness in the discharge of their duties.

Adeleke said Sunday, however, encouraged those who did not benefit in the promotion exercise not to be deterred, admonishing them to continue to work hard and be hopeful that their own promotion would arrive in due course
