OpEd: Security: How Monguno Is Dragging Service Chiefs Behind By Emmanuel Okoye | Sahara Reporters He would rather be bothered about the President receiving security information first hand from the service chiefs than knock out a strategy... READ MORE:
One thing you cannot take away from the National Security Adviser, Major General Mohammed Babagana Monguno , is the fact that he is not totally unaware of the challenges hampering the security of the nation.
To press home the point, the NSA on Thursday while also addressing the media on the security meeting President Muhammadu Buhari held with service chiefs and heads of security agencies also said that the President had among others things harped on the need for synergy among the armed forces and security agencies.
Anybody aware of how the security agencies in Nigeria have worked in the last five years would not fail to see the contradiction between what the NSA is saying and what he does. The few instances there's an intervention from the office of the NSA which the public became aware of, hardly had anything to do with the issues of security bedeviling the nation, but borne out of ego and fight for space.
When former President Goodluck Jonathan sacked General Andrew Azazi as his National Security Adviser, it was partly because Azazi was said to have become more obsessed with the office of the NSA and was apparently doing more to protect himself in office than the job for which he was hired.
