"OGA AT THE TOP" promoted in NSCDC

NSCDC Officer Famous for 'Oga At The Top' Phrase Promoted To Deputy CG 

An official of the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps , Shem Obafiaye, who became popular because of the 'Oga At The Top' phrase in 2013, has attained the rank of Deputy Commandant General. 

A decade after the  Channels Television interview where Obafiaye playfully struggled to disclose the NSCDC website, he, and two officers, Fasiu Adeyinka and Raji Ibrahim, have been appointed Deputy Commandants-General of the NSCDC by the Minister of Interior, Olubunmi Tunji-Ojo 

Announcing the promotion on Friday, Tunji-Ojo wrote on X, “As the chairman of the Civil Defence, Correctional, Fire and Immigration Services Board (CDCFIB), I decorated the three new Deputy Commandants General of the #official_NSCDC today.” 

Obafiaye gained national recognition in 2013 during an interview on Channels Television, where he humorously deferred the task of revealing the NSCDC website to his "Oga at the top." 

He said  “The one (website) that we are going to make use of is going to be made known by my Oga at the top. Yes. I can’t announce one now, and my Oga says it’s another one that we are going to use. 

“If you want to know about NSCDC as at now. Ok, www.nscdc…. That’s all.” 

That segment of the interview became viral on social media, with music DJs spinning a ’remix’ of the interview and shirts with the ‘Oga at the top’ logo’ being sold on online stores.

2023: Catholics Berate Lalong Over Attempt To Drag Pope Into Politics

August 11, 2022  Concerned Catholics in Nigeria have called for the suspension of Plateau State Governor Simon Bako Lalong for dragging the name of Pope into local politics that has nothing to do with the Church. According to the group, Lalong should be punished for bringing the name of Pope and the Catholic Church to disrepute while giving his reasons for accepting to serve as Director General of the APC Presidential Campaign Council. Speaking as a press conference in Abuja addressed by National Convener/President, Dr Ben Amodu, said the concerned Catholics in Nigeria are alarmed that Lalong would elect to throw caution into the wind by dragging the revered Catholic Church into local politics in Nigeria for whatever it is worth. “The reference to the Pope in his statement for accepting to serve as the Director General of the APC Presidential Campaign Council was made in poor taste and a puerile attempt to drag the Catholic Church into a matter that has no bearing with the
