THE Nigerian military has been tasked to develop new techniques to tackle the country’s security challenges.

   President Jonathan gave the charge Saturday in Abuja, while delivering his address at the graduation ceremony of the Nigeria Defence College (NDC) Course 21.

   He said there are strong indications that national and regional security in the 21st century are determined by forces operating within and outside state-run boundaries.

   “In the past, adversaries were easier to indentify and confront in open hostilities. Today, the enemy is usually unseen, hiding behind human shields and despicable ideologies and deploying cyber offensives, in addition to lethal conventional and unconventional armament,” the President said.

   Jonathan, who was represented by Senate President David Mark, said confronting these new threats require new thinking, new approaches and greater sophistication in equipment and capabilities.

   “Our armed forces must be agile and proactive, by enhancing their capacities to identify and disrupt, before execution, the plans and machinations of these faceless enemies, including their sources of fund, arsenal, training bases and recruitment efforts,” he said
