Insecurity: Nigerians Must Trust Military to Succeed – Defence Chief

The Chief of Defence Staff, General Lucky Irabor, has urged Nigerians to trust the military and other security agencies for the war on insecurity and insurgency to be more effective.

General Irabor made the comment while speaking with newsmen on Democracy Day.

The General noted that a lot of improvement has been recorded in securing the country in the past one year.

However, he admitted that the desired state of security is yet to be achieved.

Parts of the country he said continue to be subjected to repeated acts of violent crimes, including kidnapping and gunmen massacres.

The CDS regretted the violent incidents but argued that security agencies have averted several others.

He said in the same week of the Owo attack, security agencies had halted what could have been a major attack in Kano and Abuja.
