He said: “By utiliing advanced technology and data analytics, we aim to identify emerging threats and provide timely responses to prevent escalation.
“The Early Warning and Early Response Situation Room will not only help in identifying potential conflicts before they escalate but also facilitate quick and coordinated responses among relevant stakeholders.”
The IPCR boss also said that the Situation Room staffers have been equipped with the capacity to manage the EWSR effectively.

The chief of Party of Mercy Corps, Mr Danjuma Dawop, during the briefing noted that the establishment of this situation room is important for Nigeria, following the myriad of crises the country is confronting at the moment.
