The Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps, NSCDC, has deployed 1,200 personnel to ensure the protection of lives and property during the Christmas celebrations in Adamawa.
The Spokesman of the Corps, ASP Nyako Baba, told newsmen in Yola on Tuesday, that the personnel had been sent to strategic places to ensure the maintenance of law and order across the 21 local government areas of the state.
Baba quoted the Commandant of the Corps, Ibrahim Mainasara, as cautioning the personnel against unprofessional acts capable of causing trouble during the festive period.
“This season we are going to experience an influx of people due to the series of activities and travels among others.
“Our rapid response squad, female squad and intelligent officers would perform the exercise in synergy with other security agencies to ensure a hitch-free yuletide,” he said.
