The Nigerian Security and Civil Defence Corps, NSCDC, in Edo State, has vowed to fish out the killers of its personnel in Okpella, Etsako East Local Government Area of the state.

DAILY POST recalls that the incident occurred late last Friday while the team was reportedly coming from BUA cement site around 10 PM when they were ambushed by the suspected kidnappers.

The personnel were providing cover for Chinese expatriates working in the company’s factory

Reacting to the development, the Command’s Public Relations Officer, Efosa Ogbebor, said an investigation into the matter was still ongoing and that the Corps National Headquarters is also handling the burial of the victims and welfare of their family members.

“The National headquarters have taken over the issue, investigation is still ongoing and our men are still out there combing the forests because those men must be brought to book, they must be brought to book, the Corps is not taking it lightly in anyway, those person who did that must and will be brought to book, there is no hiding place for them, we are doing the combing in collaboration with other security agencies.

“For the victims, communication has been established with families by the Corps Headquarters and the welfare of the families they left behind is being handled by the national headquarters,” he said.
