The Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC), has posted a new Commandant, Everestus Obiyo, to Anambra State.
Tribune Online gathered that the new Commandant replaces Vincent Ogu, who was the State Commandant in Anambra State for about four months.
Edwin Okadigbo, the Command’s Public Relations Officer, noted in a statement made available to newsmen in Awka, on Thursday, that the official handing and taking over had been completed by the two officers.
Okadigbo said Obiyo, the 13th State Commandant of the NSCDC, Anambra State Command, assumed duty on September 21, 2021.
He said Ogu had been redeployed to the NSCDC National Headquarters Abuja.
The command’s spokesman described Obiyo as a seasoned officer who had demonstrated competence and administrative acumen in past positions held.
