The newly-appointed Chief of Defence Staff (CDS), Major General LEO Irabor has been charged to build strong synergy with other security and intelligence agencies in order to contain the myriads of security challenges bedeviling the country.
The call was made by the immediate-past CDS, Gen. Gabriel Olonisakin on Friday during a handing and taking over ceremony, between the two officers, at the Defence Headquarters (DHQ).
Olonisakin said there is a compelling need to review current strategy to address the changing nature of the adversaries and security threats, saying intelligence gathering would make a premium input to the operations plan.
