"Nigerian Leaders Need Training on Security Issues"

Following the increased spat of insecurity in our country, the president of Society of Security Practitioners of Nigeria, Mr. Davidson Akhimien, has called on our political leaders at all levels of government to sign up and receive relevant training on security management. 

According to the security expert, such training would “enable them understand the need to approve certain security operations, or the importance of funding whenever the leadership of security agencies require it. The training will also ensure that the appointment of security heads is not politicised and that square pegs are put in square holes, instead of attributing such sensitive positions to zoning and other political factors.” 

Hope those running our national security will heed this advice and beginning a process of training for all decision makers? As someone who's knowledgeable in security matters, I'm in total support of this call.
