Dr Ade Abolurin, Commandant-General, Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC), says the Corps had concluded plans to deploy about 500 drones and aircraft for proper surveillance of oil installations in the country. Abolurin disclosed this on Monday in Abuja at a meeting with senior officers of the Corps as part of efforts to strengthen its operational strategy.

He said that the move was in line with the new administration’s resolve to tackle the issue of oil theft headlong to boost the economic revenue accrued to the country. The NSCDC boss, who decried the spate of pipeline vandalism and oil theft in the country, said the corps was working round the clock to stem the tide.

He said the corps was exploring new ways to monitor and protect the pipelines, especially the use of technology and sophisticated gadgets to track down the vandals. “I can assure you that we are already exploring new approaches which will include the massive deployment of technology as opposed to the outdated conventional approach you are use to,’’ he said.

He said that some drones had already been deployed on a test run basis in some areas in the Niger Delta region such as Bayelsa, to test its efficacy. Abolurin also said that officers of the corp’s anti-vandalism unit had also undergone refresher training in line with international best practice to deal with the menace.

He said that so far this year about, 250 vandals had been directly arrested, while another 100 were arrested by other security agencies and handed over to them for prosecution, with 35 successfully convicted. He said the corps had also stepped up its protection of other critical infrastructure in the country such as power installation, telecommunication masts and equipment so as to ensure better service delivery to Nigerians.

The commandant-general called on the media, host communities and other stakeholders to cooperate with the NSCDC and other security agencies to tackle the challenge of oil theft and pipeline vandalism. On the issue of the recent promotion exercise in the corps, he said the process was done transparently and in line with due process as opposed to insinuations in some quarters.

He assured that the NSCDC would continue to do its best to ensure the security of lives and property in line with its mandate.

Good development, but it took too long. Civillian UAVs not armed drones. This technology is commonly used in the middle east and america.

Nice move. I wonder why the whole airforce and army will be fighting common oil theft when we have the NSCDC and the MARINE POLICE unit. If na piracy i for dey hear. What is the sense in using gunships to attack AK 47 wielding militants in the south when those assets can be deployed in the northern hot beds.. Empower NSCDC and NAVY and leave the army and airforce to protect the nations territorial integrity that is being violated on a daily basis in the north. Ok the army and airforce is fighting bokoharam and militants, what then is NSCDC,NAVY,DSS(that one self done turn to vip body guard agency)and MARINE POLICE doing? What are their role in moving the country forward? Or are they just going to be sitting down or going around totting AK47 and FNFAL'S. Policemen go dey arrest innocent boys wey dey come back from club for night dey call dem criminals oya make una go NIGERDELTA go catch "CRIMINALS" useless institutions.
Go to Bornu and Yobe u will see high number of MOPOL and conventional police working together with Army. or the are not police

There's little drones can do in that instance. They can only be effective if you're looking for a particular individual.

That is $5,000,000 right!!! Is that not better compared to over $20Bln Jonathan wasted on the Niger Delta Militants, presidential jets he bought to be carrying hundreds of people with him anytime he travelled for official duties and nothing to show for it.
If we have the drones, they can be used for situations when the needs arise and they are national asset rather than individual pocket they will come and use to intimidate you.

The watchman over the pipeline is the one aiding oil theft and also steals the oil. The drones are just waste of money. The oil securities are the thieves!

You ar correct bro...in the U.S they use dron to monitor illegal immigrants during the day and night across it border. So as me i think it's a good move. The drone will report a live feeds to the security headquarters so quick action could take place before more damage is done to the pipeline.
