Former Director of Army Public Relations, Sani Usman, has advised the Nigerian government to intensify the use of technology in its fight against terrorism and banditry.
Speaking as a guest on Channels Television’s Sunday Politics, Usman emphasized the importance of intelligence and modern tools in counter-terrorism operations.“
All the leadership of the banditry and the kingpins of terrorists, if you look at their history, they have exhibited some form of violent extremism right from the beginning, or they have this tendency of criminality over time, and the system was unable to check them,” he said.
He explained that technology can expose criminal tendencies and limit the ability of perpetrators to evade justice.
“Technology helps in the sense that even if a criminal has a tendency of committing crime, the system will eventually catch up with him. There is a limit to which you can hide because you can’t go far,” Usman added.
His remarks highlight the growing call for Nigeria to adopt advanced surveillance, intelligence gathering, and digital monitoring systems as part of a broader strategy to end insecurity.
