Responding, the CDS, Maj.-Gen. Musa, assured the governor of the military’s commitment to supporting all parts of Nigeria, especially Kaduna state, to combat insecurity. Musa said the armed forces would review its operational modalities with a view to enhancing its capabilities for better results.
He assured the governor that both kinetic and non-kinetic approaches to operations would be strengthened to boost the fight against criminality in the country.
The CDS called for the engagement of the youths in useful ventures to reduce crimes in the society.
According to him, one of the areas of concern for the military was the administrative bottlenecks in the dispensation of justice in respect of cases of criminals handed over by the military to civil authority for prosecution.
