Defence Minister Advocates
psychological framework to winning the hearts

The Minister of Defence, Maj Gen Bashir Salihi Magashi (Rtd) is recommending a new psychological framework as Non kinetic strategic instrument to winning the hearts and minds of Non – state actors who are threatening national territorial integrity and sovereignty.

General Magashi stated this when the Director General National Orientation Agency, NOA, Dr Garba Abari led a seven – man delegation on courtesy call to the Headquarters Ministry of Defence, Ship House, Abuja .

He challenged the committee which he said has an hurculean task to deliver on its mandate to restore normalcy in the dark spots of actions infected by the virus of terrorism, banditry, kidnapping and other forms of criminal activities.

While applauding the initiative of setting up the Committee to deepen national concerns for the country to end insecurity, he appealed to people of proven integrity and patriotic leaders to render quality service that will add values to the project of winning the hearts and minds in Nigeria against all vices and criminal tendencies.
