more so, the aged and generation of people we are dealing with and will deal with in the future are people who respect their dignity during enforcement of the rule of law.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNo human, no matter their economic class, will want to trade his dignity so we want to believe this will make our officers and men, gentlemen,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Aregbesola appreciated the committee for visiting the Corps\u2019 colleges physically before coming up with key suggestions for improvement.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis document will be critically assessed and studied, we might not accept everything but we will look into the document and most will be implemented if not all.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe document will be passed on to the Civil Defence, Correctional, Fire and Immigration Board (CDCFIB) and should be ready in four weeks to further study after I go through them.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe government will look into the observed losses in some of the schools and make amendments,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>He also said that the curriculum would be useful in the promotion of officers as relevant courses ought to have been taken before promotion unlike the corps\u2019 initial reliance on promotion examinations.<\/p>\n<p>According to him, \u201cas at today there is no training programme for private guards and in the pyramid of security structure, the level at which Private Guard Companies (PGC) operate is widespread so we cannot continue to allow them operate without proper training.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPGCs training can reduce the internal security in the country as they can give credible grassroot reports.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere is need to further work with PGD and stakeholders to develop training programs for PGC to be certified on their job as this will be a complementary service to security agencies.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The the committee was made up of retired senior officers from the Police, Military, Correctional service, NSCDC, university lectures, lawyers.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A Ministerial Committee set up by the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) has developed a standard curriculum for all courses taken at NSCDC training schools across the country for better service delivery.
