Govt, Israel partner on internal security,
counter-terrorism

US Ambassador to Nigeria James
Entwistle revealed this yesterday in
Abuja during a courtesy call on the
Minister of Interior, General
Abdulrahman Dambazau (rtd), in his
office.

Entwistle said his country had concluded
plans to send a team to Nigeria by
January, as part of efforts to end all
forms of insecurity in Nigeria and the
world at large.

“We are ready to partner with you on
security. As you know the Security
Governance Initiative (SGI), we will be
having a team here in January in this
regard. It is an attempt to approach the
need to reform democracy in order to
improve security performance. This
project will be done with the Nigerian
government,” and assured the minister
of total support to combat insecurity.

In a similar development, Nigeria and
Israel have agreed to engage in a
partnership that will put an end to the
incidents of insurgency and terrorism
and challenges of internal security
threatening the country’s stability and
corporate existence.

This was revealed yesterday when the
Ambassador of Israel, Uriel Palti paid a
courtesy visit to the Minister of Interior,
General Abdulrahman Dambazau (rtd) in
Abuja.

Palti, who said the major challenge of
dealing with the country’s internal
security lies within the jurisdiction of
the Interior ministry, said, “The fight
against terrorism is an issue affecting
four other countries in the West African
sub-region including Nigeria. It is an
issue affecting the world as a whole. We
look forward to partnering with you for
mutual interests in the future.”

Responding, the minister of Interior who
expressed gratitude to the US
ambassador, assuring that the Nigerian
government will partner with the US to
ensure fruitful implementation of the
project said, “We want to assure you that
we will fulfill our own part of the
partnership and we are confident that
you will fulfill your own part also.”

Speaking earlier, Ambassador Palti, who
said he had been mandated by the Prime
Minister of Israel, Mr. Benjamin
Netanyahu to do everything possible to
strengthen relations between Israel and
Nigeria in areas of bilateral interests,
added, “we have the experience and we
will work with you. We will collaborate
with you in the areas of counter-
terrorism and strengthening of your
internal security.”

US should be specific, they re sending us a team of ISIS member abi a team of govt. destabilization team.

Fg nor sabi road to Russia .....US ko Isis ni

Una welcome oh

Nice development

what are they gaining? cos its not free. USA can never offer help or aid for free. They must gain something.

So these experts will solve the problem of terrorism? Can they also solve the problem of unemployment, illiteracy and poverty which exacerbated the scourge in the first place?

U guys are on some #pope bars,keep bursting 16.

Some people and stewpydity



So now that there's hope for Nigeria against terrorism some erdyots are saying it's about oil


Would you rather keep your yeye cheap oil and remain hostages in your own country or what?

USA have no clue about fighting terrorism if you don't believe me check Somalia(since 1992), Iraq(since 2001), Libya(since 2010), Afghanistan(since 2001) and the list goes on and on.




Unlike how Israel have dealt with the Palestine Arab terrorists(Hamas, Hezbollah and the rest ) or England handled Ireland IRA terrorists or how Colombia handled the FARC rebel. This are the kind of model Nigeria should be pursuing not USA lopsided way of fighting terrorism.

Of what benefit will their coming be. We've all seen their track records when it comes to addressing such issues, Libya, Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria, and others...

I don't know why you belief that everybody is interested in your oil; why can't you use your oil to fight terrorism?

Ephemmm:
