Odumosu gave the warning at the opening ceremony of a three-day training for the arms squad unit of the command in Abuja.
The Commandant also charged the personnel to be diligent in their duty and professional in arms handling.
He said, “We will not condone any trigger-happy personnel. We frown against any intimidation and harassment of members of the public.
“While being civil in the discharge of your duty, also be firm against criminally-minded people.”
According to him, 280 personnel drawn from area commands, divisional offices and several units of the command were being trained on the latest techniques in arms handling.
He said they would be deployed to strategic locations in the FCT after their training exercise, maintaining that the Corps would not accept failure.
Speaking earlier, the unit commandant, John Stephen, said the corps had come up with new strategies to counter the dynamic security challenges in the FCT, adding that the training exercise was one of the ways of imbibing the new strategies in the personnel on the field.
