Security adviser for a time like this
The charge came against the backdrop of increasing nationwide disenchantment with the worsening insecurity in the country, especially in the North-East and North-West.One reason that has been roundly adduced for the rigid, ineffective and unyielding approach of the security agencies in fighting insurgency and banditry, particularly in the current political dispensation is their regimented mentality of ‘fire for fire’, which of course, is implicit in their professional training.
The next NSA should be a civilian professional without regimented mentality who can view all the pressing security issues in Nigeria holistically. Similarly, the next occupier of ONSA should be a man lettered in law and jurisprudence. He should equally have the knowledge of enforcement of law and criminal justice.
He must possess requisite knowledge in counter-insurgence and counter-terrorism and be able to understand management of strategic communication.
