“We have a collective duty to protect CNAI as these amenities were provided with our commonwealth.
“Destruction of these facilities will take us years backwards and the NSCDC will not tolerate that,” Odumosu said.
He added that although it was the right of every citizen to engage in peaceful protests, the Corps would not tolerate any attempt to cause destruction of government properties and installations.

Odumosu however frowned at the attack of motorists on Thursday in the Lugbe area of the territory and the burning of private vehicles at Nyanya.
“I am calling on the public to embrace dialogue as this is the civilised way to air grievances as violence will only cause more harm than good,” he reiterated.
During the commandant’s visit to the Idu railway, the FCT Administration (FCTA), Director of Transport, Engr. Joseph Akinteye commended the personnel of the corps for their diligence in securing the railway stations.
“We have not had any case of vandalism in a long while, this shows the commitment of your men in securing critical infrastructure in the FCT,” Akinteye said.
