“In NSCDC there is nothing like accidental discharge. Once you find yourself holding a weapon, rules of engagement must continually sound in your head, your rifle is as safe as you want it to be.
“You have been trained in weapons handling. This is one aspect of your job that you have to tread with utmost caution.
“Respect the fundamental human rights of all Nigerians and be guarded by our watchword humility and integrity in service delivery.
“Note also that, you are also expected to maintain a high level of discipline, professionalism and competence in the discharge of your duties. Your uniform and weapon must not be used to intimidate or harass any citizens,” the commandant warned.
