Odumosu, who promised to take the battle to the doorsteps of criminals in the FCT, spoke at the opening ceremony of a three-day training exercise for the arms squad unit of the command in Abuja.

He said; “We will not condone any trigger-happy personnel. We frown against any intimidation and harassment of members of the public.”

The FCT commandant who repeatedly said “enough is enough” to all manner of criminality in the territory, vowed that his administration would put an end to such attacks.

 “We will no longer tolerate one chance, vandalism, robbery, deliberate and unprovoked harassment and unwarranted killing of innocent Nigerians who fall victim when they  go out there  in search of greener pasture. The NSCDC is dedicated to securing lives and property of all Nigerians, and that is exactly what we will display.

“Every such attack or killing henceforth  will be met with a commensurate and lawful force as an attack on an innocent citizen is tantamount to an attack on the state.

“Enough is enough, this strong warning is made clear again so that evil-doers, criminals and agents of destruction in the FCT will know that their offences against the state, innocent persons and its people will not go unpunished henceforth,” he said.

This is even as he charged the trainees  to be firm when dealing with vandals and miscreants, urging them to guard against accidental discharge.

“While being civil in your approach, duty and operations, I also encourage you to be firm on criminals because FCT is not the place for them,” he added.

According to him, 280 personnel drawn from area commands, divisional offices and several units of the command were being trained on the latest techniques in arms handling.

He said they would be deployed to strategic locations in the FCT after their training, maintaining that the corps would not accept failure.

Odumosu said the corps had arrested 85 suspects caught vandalising government properties across the FCT in the last two months, adding that manhole theft had reduced drastically within the same period.

The unit commandant, Mr. John Stephen, said the corps had come up with new strategies to counter the dynamic security challenges in the FCT, adding that the training exercise was one of the ways of imbibing the new strategies into the personnel on the field.
