Bandits: Civil Defence tells Zamfara schools to be alert
The Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) in Zamfara has alerted private school owners to be security-conscious and proactive, to avert breach of security.
The NSCDC commandant in Zamfara, Athanasius Spark, gave the alert while receiving the new executive members of National Association of Proprietors of Private Schools (NAPPS) Zamfara chapter, in Gusau.
Mr Sparks advised the proprietors to always form muster points in their schools, to assist the students in the case of any eventuality.
He said that the civil defence had already stationed Rapid Response Squads in all parts of Zamfara and was ready for distress calls from anybody.
The commandant assured the association of the corps’ cooperation and support whenever it was needed.
The leader of the association in Zamfara, Abdullahi Tukur, thanked the corps for the professional advice and support always given to the members. He said the new executive of the association deemed it necessary to interface with the command because it had been very supportive.
