The Controller General of the Nigerian Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC), Dr. Ahmed Audi, has denied giving the instruction for the withdrawal of the officials attached to Shina Peller.
The CG in a statement on Wednesday evening said the withdrawal was done without recourse to constituted authority and definitely not on his orders.
The statement read: “The leadership of the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps has dismissed as unauthorized and without recourse to the Corps constituted authority, a letter signed and sent to a Member of the House of Representatives, Hon Shina Peller, informing him of the withdrawal of officials of the NSCDC assigned to him.
“Not only did the officer in question lacked the power to do such, he was also found to have acted on his whims without clearance.
“The Commandant General, Dr. Ahmed Abubakar Audi, mni, has therefore directed a reinstatement of the withdrawn officers with a compliment of necessary courtesies to the Honourable Member.”
