The commandant said the stolen items included computer desktop sets, keyboards, LCD TVs, executive chairs, doors, window frames, and drawers.
“Four suspected criminals were also caught vandalising state road dual carriageway iron demarcating shields and conveying the looted goods to an unknown destination,” he said.
In a separate incident, NSCDC operatives recovered a 50KVA Mikano generator from hoodlums in Dorayi who had vandalised the set and were attempting to whisk it away.
The commandant disclosed that the Corps had launched an investigation and would take legal action against the offenders.
He said the command had intensified efforts to guard critical national assets and public utilities, warning criminals to stay away from vandalising public infrastructure.
