The Commandant General of the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC), Dr. Ahmed Abubakar Audi, has pledged unwavering support for Operation Safe Corridor, a groundbreaking initiative aimed at deradicalizing, rehabilitating, and reintegrating repentant insurgents into society.
According to a statement signed by Babawale Zaid Afolabi, National PRO NSCDC, the Commandant General of the NSCDC, Dr. Ahmed Abubakar Audi, made this assertion when he received the Coordinator of Operation Safe Corridor, Brig. Gen. Yusuf Ali, and members of his team at the NSCDC National Headquarters.
Brig. Gen. Yusuf Ali, Coordinator of Operation Safe Corridor, explained the need to correct the wrong impression of providing succour to those who wronged the society before.” He stated that Operation Safe Corridor is a local mechanism of solving problems for insurgents who are willing to surrender and be reintegrated into the society rather than resort to criminal justice.
The NSCDC’s boss further assured that his agency will continue to collaborate and provide professional support to Operation Safe Corridor. “There won’t be any development without peace, hence the decision to maintain support for the operation whose mandate is to deradicalise, rehabilitate and reintegrate repentant insurgents into the society,” Dr. Audi explained
Aluta News reports that the partnership between the NSCDC and Operation Safe Corridor is a powerful example of what can be achieved through collaborative efforts. By working together, Nigeria can create a more inclusive and peaceful society, where former insurgents can rebuild their lives and contribute to national development.
