Taraba State Governor Agbu Kefas has said that no single security agency can effectively tackle the serious security challenges confronting Nigeria.
He recently emphasised that inter-agency partnership and synergy are needed to address insecurity in the country.
Speaking in Jalingo during the closing ceremony of a two-week capacity-building training organised by the 6 Brigade of the Nigerian Army, Kefas revealed that combined intelligence and mutual trust among security agencies is key to ensuring the nation is safe again.
According to him, it is important for Nigerians to recognize that security is a collective responsibility, hence why our response to the long-standing crisis must be a joint effort.
“As we reflect on the significance of this training, it is essential to recognise that security is a collective responsibility.
The safety of our communities depends on the readiness and professionalism of our security personnel.
In today’s world, the threats we face are increasingly sophisticated, and our response must be equally adept,” he said.
He further noted that the era of individual security operations is long gone, stressing the need for strengthened collaboration among agencies.
He concluded by hailing the participants, instructors, and trainers for their dedication throughout the training period, reiterating his commitment to supporting security agencies with resources and logistics to maintain peace and order in Taraba state.
“No single agency can tackle these challenges alone.
It is imperative that we work together, share information and coordinate our efforts to achieve a common goal,” he added.
