The Minister of Defence, Abubakar Badaru, has called for a review of the military strategies, tactics, techniques, and procedures to effectively combat insecurity in the country.
The minister, who noted that the country was facing torrid times, said that the government and the citizens relied on the military to make the country safe and secure.
Badaru, represented by the Minister of State for Defence, Bello Matawalle, spoke during the decoration of newly promoted senior officers at the Nigerian Air Force Headquarters in Abuja on Friday.
He made the call following scrutiny of the tactics employed by the military and other security agencies after the heinous attacks in Plateau State that resulted in the killing of over 195 residents.
The minister also urged the military to remain focused on the ongoing fight against banditry and terrorism, among others.
Badaru, however, urged the newly promoted officers to redouble their efforts and ensure that all security threats were quickly brought to an end in the country.
