Heavily armed policemen, on Monday, invaded the Imo State Command of the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) and manhandled the state commandant and allegedly killed his orderly.

The NSCDC commandant was dragged out in his boxers and beat him several civil defeders were injured.

The show of shame happened at the Imo State Command Headquarters, located at the very busy Okigwe Road, along Works Layout in Owerri, the state capital.

LEADERSHIP gathered from a very reliable source that the heavily armed men of the Squadron-18 Mobile Police, Owerri, who attacked the personnel of the NSCDC, shot sporadically in the air, forcing residents of the area to scamper for their safety.

Further investigation by our orrespondent revealed that trouble started after a heated argument had ensued between the driver of the NSCDC boss and a police officer in mufti, who blocked the exit way of the commandan’ts entourage, which was returning from Abacheke, the oil bunkering site where scores were burnt to death in Egbema.

A Civil Defence officer, who gave his name only as Ikechukwu, explained that “when asked by the commandant’s security escorts to move aside, the police officer who was not on uniform vehemently refused without even disclosing his identity. He was, however, ignored on the commandant’s directive.

“However, rather than go his way, the police officer, unknown to the the men of the Corps, put a call through to his colleagues, who mobilised to the command’s headquarters, while he followed the entourage to Owerri.

“On reaching the Corps office, while the commandant made to enter the command, the man blocked the NSCDC boss, brought out a pistol and announced that he was a police officer. On sighting that, he was immediately rounded up and arrested by NSCDC officers who also seized the pistol to avert danger.”

Another officer, who did not want his name in print, said, “After he was released, he returned with heavily armed enraged MOPOL men who went into beating, shooting and attacking both officers and their facilities at the premises.”

LEADERSHIP further learnt that in the process ensuing chaos, the commandant, Mr Ogar, who was already in his office, rushed out to address the situation on hearing the gunshots, but the enraged policemen attacked and beat him up with his uniform torn, after which he was stripped down to his boxers before being whisked away.

It was also gathered that the enraged MOPOL officers who threatened to shoot at the state commandant allegedly boasted that nothing will happen.

The civil defence source who spoke to LEADERSHIP said the policemen subsequently released their colleague who was arrested and detained for invading its premises.

As at the time of filing this report, efforts to get spokespersons of both security agencies to react to the show of shame proved abortive as they did not respond to calls put across to their phone lines.

They would have labeled him an unknown gunman if he wasn't a security personnel

Let's give the security agents a round of applause for interpreting their constitutional duties to mean fighting each other. Nigeria security agents don't behave differently from criminals.

I Don't Understand at all.. So Mopol can just invade another sister security agency without fear, they are lucky I am not the leader of the NCDC in the state, it would have been fire for fire. I don't condole rubbish. Never!

Hmmm, head's must surely roll over this action.

Imagine beating up a state commandant of NSCDC who's an equivalent of a Commissioner of police... They even killed his orderly!

Those police men will be severely dealt with!!!

Comedians

Embarrassing situation for a our security agencies,the mopol officers are obviously not well trained and are a disgrace to the force.

The Commandant shouldn't have exposed himself that way,he should have issued directives behind the scene to his officers to de escalate the situation.Imagine a whole commandant rubbished in such a manner.

I weep for my country Nigeria,we still have a long way to go.

I am beginning to agree with Mazi Nnamdi kanu.We live in a Zoo.

Army oppress police, police oppress civil defense, civil defense oppress peace corp .

Army beat police

Navy beat police

Police beat civil defence.

Finished country.

A friend of mine was in the office of the civil defence when the police men invaded their office. The guy said he hid underneath a car.
This report isn't entirely correct as he said that the civil defence arrested the senior police officer.

Dog chop Dog.

ok

The zoo has fallen

BiafraTs police .Can these useless pigs try this with Soldiers ?.

Make Biafra come quick
