Tragedy struck the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) in Iwo, Osun State, as a newly promoted officer, identified as Opatola, reportedly slumped and died on Monday shortly after receiving his salary.



The officer, who had just been decorated with his new rank last week, was said to be in good health when he resumed duty that day.


A source within the command, who wished to remain anonymous, revealed that the officer, along with his colleagues, had received their salary notifications. Disappointment was evident among them, including the late officer, as they discussed the underwhelming payment. The source recounted, “He was visibly worried. The officer was hale and hearty when he resumed for duty and even attended to a few cases.”


After working for a while, Opatola excused himself to visit the restroom. When he didn’t return, colleagues went to check on him and found him lying on the floor. He was immediately rushed to the hospital, where he was sadly confirmed dead.


Another source speculated that the stress and disappointment over the salary might have aggravated an underlying health issue, leading to his sudden passing. Efforts to contact the Osun Command NSCDC spokesperson, Kehinde Adeleke, for an official statement were unsuccessful, as calls and messages were unanswered at the time of this report.


This heartbreaking incident has left the NSCDC community in shock and highlights the challenges some officers face despite their dedication to service.
