A female security officer has died after being hit by an operational vehicle of the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) during a simulation exercise in Abuja.
Afolabi Babawale, NSCDC spokesperson, confirmed the incident to TheCable on Saturday via a telephone call.
The officerās name had not been officially released as of the time of this report.
Footage circulating on social media shows the moment the accident occurred during what appeared to be a coordinated show-of-force drill.
In the video, the officer was knocked down and run over by a patrol vehicle making a turn during the exercise.
The vehicle eventually halted, prompting an immediate response from colleagues and onlookers who rushed to lift it and pull her out. Emergency responders arrived at the scene shortly afterwards and evacuated her.
Confirming the fatality, Babawale said the NSCDC had commenced internal processes following the incident.
āIt is true we lost a personnel during the simulation exercise. Our senior officers are on their way to the residence of the deceased to pay our condolences,ā he said.
He added that a detailed statement would be issued to clarify the circumstances surrounding the tragedy and outline the steps being taken by the agency.
