In a statement released by NSCDC spokesperson Babawale Afolabi, Dr Audi condemned the officers’ actions, labeling them “unprofessional” and a violation of the Corps’ ethical standards.
“This is a breach of public trust and contrary to the values we uphold,” Dr Audi stated. He further ordered the transfer of the accused officers to the NSCDC National Headquarters in Abuja for detention pending a disciplinary investigation.

Dr Audi also urged the public to continue supporting the NSCDC, noting that “the unprofessional behavior of a few must not define the Corps.
