President Muhammadu Buhari called for unity among the West African States and those in the Sahel to deal with security challenges in their respective nations.
The Chief of Army Staff, Maj. Gen. Farouk Yahaya, says service chiefs now work in synergy, debunking insinuation that they failed in curbing the worsening insecurity in the country due to inter-agency rivalry.
Buhari, while receiving the new Special Representative of the United Nations Secretary-General for West Africa and the Sahel, Mahamat Annadif, at the State House, Abuja, says the security challenges were enormous and, there, required concerted efforts to tackle them.
Buhari added that the Boko Haram insurgency has ravished the lives and resources of Nigerians and inhabitants of some neighbouring countries while large swathes of Mali remain occupied by militants.
