Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps, (NSCDC) Abia State command and the Enugu Electricity Distribution Company (EEDC) have collaborated to check vandalism of power installations in the state.
Its commandant, Usman Alfadarai and the business manager of the company, Chibueze Iwuala, sealed the collaboration at a meeting at the headquarters of the command in Umuahia, the state capital.
In his remarks, Alfadarai expressed dissatisfaction at the vandalism of such critical public assets and infrastructure in the state, describing it as serious menace to the society.
Alfadarai assured of the preparedness and commitment of the command to partner the company, sister security agencies, and the general public to achieve the objective.
Earlier in an address, the business manager lamented the level of vandalism, pointing out that it is one of the company’s major challenges in achieving efficient service delivery in the state.
He, therefore, solicited the cooperation of the command in not only protecting the installations, but also to ensure that the culprits are prosecuted to serve as deterrent.
