He further said that the command would continue to work with the customs service in the areas of intelligence and joint operations.
According to the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC), fully armed tactical men have been sent to defend Nigeria’s borders with Niger Republic via Katsina State.
Mr Jamilu Indabawa, the state’s NSCDC Commandant, said this when he received Mr Muhammad Umar, the new Katsina Area Controller of the Nigeria Customs Service (NCS), on a courtesy call.
According to him, the deployment of the personnel was part of the existing synergy between the security agencies in the state to ensure the security and safety of the people.
Indabawa further appreciated the existing working relationship between the two agencies in the state.
He further said that the command would continue to work with the customs service in the areas of intelligence and joint operations.
Earlier, Umar advocated more synergy on joint operations, intelligence, and border drills.
The comptroller also reiterated, ”NCS can not do it alone, especially with the vast geographical area of the state.
”NSCDC has a better role to play due to its grassroots presence in virtually every nook and cranny of the state.” (NAN)
