The Nigerian Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) in Osun on Saturday deployed sniffer dogs in polling units across the state to detect Improvised Explosive Devices (IDEs).
Alhaji Tajudeen Balogun, the NSCDC Commandant in the state, told newsmen that the dogs would not disrupt the electoral process but would only detect explosive devices.
He said they were well trained and had been part of the corps team for sometime, adding that they were being deployed for the elections due to security situation in the country.
The commandant said the dogs were trained to detect what the ordinary eyes could not see, saying that they were being deployed by all state commands.
