Dambazau, in his remarks, thanked the delegation for the visit and expressed optimism that the partnership would help to re-position the security architecture of the country.
He said that the partnership would involve all security agencies and not just those of the Ministry of Interior so as to fashion out a holistic security roadmap to deal with terrorism and other crimes.
The minister said that the meeting was in tandem with President Muhammadu Buhari’s agenda to address security, corruption and the economy of the country in line with international best practice.
He charged officials from all security agencies in the country that were part of the meeting to show commitment and dedication to the task ahead.
Officials from the Nigeria police force, army, air force, navy, immigration, prisons, civil defence and fire service are part of the strategic meeting.
