He underscored the vital role NSCDC operatives play in preventing crimes before they occur through keen observation and timely reporting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cSecurity is not just about response; it begins with prevention,\u201d Musa said. \u201cEvery operative must step up their vigilance and remain constantly alert to their environment. Being sensitive to unusual movements, suspicious persons, or activities can save lives and protect property.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Musa further urged operatives to deepen community engagement, recognizing that intelligence from local residents often serves as the first line of defense against criminal elements. He called for stronger partnerships between NSCDC operatives and community leaders, vigilante groups, and other security agencies to enhance information sharing and joint operations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe success of our security efforts depends largely on collaboration. Communities are our eyes and ears on the ground, and we must build trust to encourage them to report suspicious activities promptly,\u201d Musa added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Acknowledging the dynamic nature of security threats, the NSCDC Commandant stressed the importance of continuous training and capacity development. He announced plans to intensify training programs aimed at equipping operatives with modern surveillance techniques, conflict resolution skills, and intelligence gathering methods necessary for addressing emerging challenges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In addition, Musa highlighted the need for operatives to adhere strictly to discipline and professionalism, ensuring that their conduct fosters public confidence in the Corps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe must lead by example, uphold integrity, and demonstrate unwavering commitment to our duties,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Commandant reassured that the NSCDC in Plateau State would maintain a robust presence across all local government areas, prioritizing the protection of critical national assets such as power plants, pipelines, communication infrastructure, and other key installations vulnerable to sabotage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In closing, Ishaku Musa called on all security agencies operating in Plateau State to foster greater synergy and coordination, emphasizing that a united front is crucial in restoring and maintaining peace in the state.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe challenges are significant, but together we can overcome them,\u201d he concluded.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Pix: Commandant Ishaku Musa The Commandant of the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) in Plateau State, Ishaku Musa, has
