Ocheja further reiterated the efforts, commitments and doggedness of the Commandant General, Dr. Ahmed Abubakar Audi, in repositioning the Corps towards the enhancement of professionalism and promotion of excellence in service delivery.

 

The Head of Forensic and Psychological Services Unit, NSCDC, Osun Command, Deputy Superintendent of Corps (DSC) Stephen Oyebode who explained the primary essence of the assessment disclosed that robust mechanism had been put in place by the Unit to offer psychotherapy and psycho-social intervention to officers who may need assistance after a thorough analysis by the experts.

 

He further stated that the exercise is aimed at selecting the best capable hands who can be entrusted with arms and also to determine who will be placed in some sensitive departments and units.
