In a bold step to enhance security and improve the operational efficiency of security agencies, the Jigawa State Government has donated three brand-new Toyota Hilux vehicles to the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC), Jigawa State Command.

The vehicles were officially handed over at the Office of the Secretary to the State Government (SSG) in Dutse by the Permanent Secretary, Special Services and Council Affairs, Bello Datti, and the Special Adviser to the Governor on Security Matters, Dr. Usman Muhammad Jahun. The donation reflects the administration’s continuous commitment to supporting security institutions in safeguarding lives, property, and critical national infrastructure across the state.

Receiving the vehicles, the State Commandant of NSCDC, Commandant Muhammad Kabir Ingawa, expressed deep gratitude to the Executive Governor of Jigawa State, Malam Umar Namadi (FCA), for his generosity and consistent support to security agencies in the state.

Commandant Ingawa described the gesture as “a clear reflection of the Governor’s dedication to peace, security, and inter-agency cooperation in tackling emerging security challenges.” He assured that the vehicles would be immediately deployed for strategic patrols, rapid response operations, and the protection of critical infrastructure, especially in rural and border communities.

He further reaffirmed the Command’s commitment to maintaining professionalism, discipline, and integrity in carrying out its constitutional duties. He added that the Corps will continue to strengthen collaboration with sister security agencies to ensure lasting peace and stability throughout Jigawa State.

The donation is expected to significantly enhance the Command’s mobility, response time, and field visibility across the 27 Local Government Areas, reinforcing the state’s efforts to secure lives and property.
