NSCDC Boss Calls For Enhanced Synergy To End Banditry, Others In Kwara

KEHINDE AKINPELU, ILORIN

The Kwara State Commandant of the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC), Dr. Umar J.G. Mohammed, has called for stronger collaboration between conventional security agencies and private guard companies to combat insecurity in the state.

He made the call on Thursday 11th September, 2025 at a Security Summit organized by the NSCDC Kwara State Command in collaboration with the Association of Licensed Private Security Practitioners of Nigeria (ALPSPN), held at the Banquet Hall, Ilorin. The theme of the summit was “The Role of Private Security Guards in Crime Prevention and Intelligence Gathering.”

Commandant Umar noted that the rising cases of banditry, kidnapping, cultism, cybercrime, and other security challenges could no longer be addressed by conventional security agencies alone.

“Private guard companies are often the first point of contact in our communities. When properly regulated and integrated, they can provide vital intelligence and support conventional security agencies in safeguarding lives and property,” he stressed.

In his goodwill message, Governor Abdulrahman Abdulrazaq (CON), represented by his Senior Special Adviser on Security, Mallam Muyeeden Aliyu, commended security agencies for their sustained efforts in ensuring peace across the state. He assured that the state government would continue to provide an enabling environment and support security operations.

The Chairman of ALPSPN Kwara State Chapter, Amb. (Dr.) Samuel Yusuf Bola, also appealed for greater recognition and partnership for private security companies, stressing that they understand the local terrain and can play a stronger role in intelligence gathering.

Delivering a keynote paper titled “The Role of Private Guard Companies in Crime Prevention and Intelligence Gathering,” former Kwara State Police Public Relations Officer, Sp. Ajayi Okasanmi (rtd), echoed the call for closer collaboration among security stakeholders, noting that unity of purpose is key to achieving a crime-free society.

The summit brought together top security stakeholders, policymakers, and private guard operators to chart new strategies for tackling insecurity through intelligence sharing and operational synergy.
