An eyewitness told LEADERSHIP that the deceased officer attempted a stunt near a major intersection before the CG’s residence, just after attempting a U-turn to join the rest of the convoy but missed the brakes and ran into a concrete culvert while on high speed.

Dickson, an Enugu State-born officer, reportedly lost his mother six months ago and was just recovering from the pains of her demise when he also died on Tuesday.

Meanwhile, the Corps spokesman and director of Media and Public Relations, DCC Olusola, said the demise of the gallant, committed, jovial and very humble officer has thrown the Civil Defence family into deep mourning.

He said, “The entire management and staff of Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) mourns a very gallant officer, ASC I Dickson Dike, the first outrider of the Corps. May his soul rest in perfect peace,” he stated.
