NSCDC inaugurates 60 female squad for Kano schools

The Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) in Kano State has inaugurated a 60 special female squad to enhance security in schools.

Speaking at the inauguration of the squad, the state’s Commandant, Muhammad Lawal Falala, said the squad was trained specifically to tackle insecurity, banditry, rape and other criminal activities, noting that females didn’t take the issue of rape lightly; hence that they were the best group that would fight the menace.

He explained that the squad was first commissioned in 2022 at the corps’ national headquarters by the Commandant General, Dr Ahmed Abubakar Audi.
