The General Officer Commanding Three Division of the Nigerian Army and Commander, Operation Enduring Peace, Major General Maxwell Dangana, has stressed the need for operational-level commanders to strengthen their capacity to respond to emerging security threats through effective planning and multi-agency cooperation.
General Dangana stated this while declaring open a five-day Three Division Operations Planning Cadre at the Maxwell Khobe Cantonment, Jos, Plateau State.
The training, with the theme Building the Capacity of Operational Level Commanders to Meet Contemporary Security Challenges in a Joint and Multi-Agency Environment, brings together commanders and representatives of formations under Three Division as well as personnel from sister security and intelligence agencies.
The General Officer Commanding said the contemporary security environment is increasingly complex and unpredictable, requiring commanders who are operationally competent, adaptable and innovative.
He said contemporary security challenges include terrorism, insurgency, banditry, communal violence, violent extremism and other threats to national security.
According to him these challenges are often interconnected and may evolve rapidly, requiring timely assessment, flexible planning and coordinated responses.
Dangana noted that developments in technology, information management and social media, alongside the activities of diverse state and non-state actors, have significant implications for military operations.
He stressed that the security of communities, protection of lives and property and support for civil authorities require effective leadership and close cooperation among security agencies.
