This is contained to a statement signed by NSCDC Public Relations Officer (PRO), Babawale Afolabi, on Tuesday in Abuja.

According to Afolabi, Amakiri died at the early hours of Tuesday after a brief illness.

The NSCDC Commandant General (CG), Ahmed Audi, said that the demise of late Amakiri is a monumental loss to the Corps as she would be greatly missed.
