FG banks on foreign assistance to tackle insecurity

Nigeria is to strengthen the joint action between its security forces and their foreign counterparts as it seeks solutions to its security challenges.

President Goodluck Jonathan said during the opening of the 12th meeting of the Honourary International Investors Council at the Presidential Villa, Abuja on Thursday, the  step was aimed at making the country investors’ preferred destination.

He said, “On the issue of security, we are building the capacity of the police and other related agencies to fight crimes and defeat terrorism.
“We have also strengthened coordinated joint action between our security agencies and their counterparts abroad.
“The recent overhaul of our security team should herald a fresh approach towards frontally tackling our security challenge in all its ramifications.”
