The statement partly read, “Chairman of the Commission, Dr. Solomon Arase, charged the newly appointed Commissioners to ensure that Mr. President’s vision for improved national security is accorded the required attention.
“Arase said the war against terror and terrorism in Nigeria must be won and called on state Command Commissioners to re-strategise and take over the public space currently being distorted by non-state actors. ”
Ani said the commission chairman promised to continue creating an enabling environment for officers to give their best, adding that Nigeria’s security remains a priority for national growth.
