That\u2019s why collaboration remains crucial in safeguarding lives and property. The NSCDC is fully committed to deepening this established partnership,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He further noted that the NSCDC and DSS have enjoyed a long-standing alliance, supported by shared responsibilities that also extend to other sister agencies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cYour visit today reaffirms the strength of our synergy, which is indispensable in the execution of our mandates within the FCT,\u201d Odumosu added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He assured the DSS of the NSCDC\u2019s unwavering support, especially in intelligence sharing and joint operations aimed at tackling insecurity and other emerging threats in the territory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to the Commandant, this renewed collaboration will be pivotal in addressing criminality and maintaining peace across Abuja.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In his response, DSS Director Usman Dauda said his visit was aimed at reinforcing the already fruitful relationship with the NSCDC, describing the Corps as a vital stakeholder in national security.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He acknowledged the NSCDC\u2019s broad mandate under its establishment Act and commended the Command for its consistent efforts in maintaining order in the FCT.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dauda expressed confidence in the progress being made toward improving the nation\u2019s security architecture, stressing that collaborative efforts from all security agencies are essential in achieving lasting peace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He pledged the DSS\u2019s continued support and collaboration with the NSCDC in intelligence-driven operations and other joint initiatives to secure the capital and beyond.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In a renewed effort to enhance security and curb
