Chief of Defence Staff, CDS, General Christopher Musa, said security is everybody’s business and urged Nigerians to provide the necessary information that would aid security officials operations.
Musa said this in Abuja while delivering his address at the 48th Annual National Conference of Muslim Elders Association of Nigeria.
The convention had as theme: “Making Living Worthwhile For All: Islamic Solutions to Economic and Security Challenges”.
The association was created to promote peace, foster brotherhood, enhance leadership values, education and humanitarian services.
Represented by Major-General Shuab Bashir, the CDS said collaboration with relevant agencies would aid the quest to address the economic and security challenges in the country.
”Security is everybody’s business; everyone must be involved. It should not be left to security agencies alone. People must give us useful information,” he said.
While corroborating the position of the CDS, representative of the Police Commissioner in the FCT, Mr Uba Alkali, said effective security requires the collective efforts of all citizens.
‘Security is everyone’s responsibility. I urge you all to work with the police to serve humanity,” he said.
