… Says Intelligence Agencies Are Clueless
A retired Assistant Inspector-General ofPolice, AIG, Ambrose Aisabor, at the weekend, took a critical look at thesecurity situation in the country particularly the terrorist activities of BokoHaram and banditry, and returned a damning verdict that “our intelligenceagencies have no answers to these challenges”.
The Edo-State-born former police chief, therefore, expressed the need by the Federal Government to urgently convoke a National Security Summit to address insecurity in the country. Speaking against the backdrop of incessant ambush of military men by Boko Haram militia and the recent killing of nine soldiers by members of the insurgency group, Aisabor averred that the era of docility and pretending that all is well in the country was over. While stating unequivocally that the country’s intelligence system was defective and not working, he asserted that “Boko Haram’s mechanism is more powerful and effective than that of our security agencies”.
