The Minister of Defence, General Christopher Musa, rtd, has directed Nigeria’s service chiefs to visit the North-west and North-East to rejig military operations.
The directive was issued at a meeting with the service chiefs on Wednesday at the Ministry of Defence Headquarters in Abuja.
Musa had summoned the service chiefs to discuss security challenges in the affected zones.
Earlier it was reported that meeting followed the rising level of insecurity in the country.
According to the Media Adviser to the Minister, Timothy Antigha, the service chiefs are expected to report their findings after their visit to the security-challenged geopolitical zones.
Recall that in recent weeks, there has been a spate of attacks by terrorists in the regions, with military bases often targeted and several personnel killed.
“Ensure you rejig military operations in the North-East and North-West region,” the defence minister told the service chiefs, according to Antigha.
