“It is part of our contributions to societal growth and development. It shall bring together, security stakeholders, professionals, political leaders, civil society organizations, journalists, community and religious leaders, citizens and residents in the country, with the aim of reaching out to each other to collectively address the growing insecurity in the country.

The National Security Adviser, Mallam Nuhu Ribadu is the Special Guest of Honour and he will deliver the Keynote Address while H.E. Barr. Nyesom Wike, the Honourable Minister of the FCT is the Chief Host

On his part, the NUJ National Chairman, Mr Chris Isiguzo, said as journalists, they must set the right agenda.

“We can’t keep quiet on the insecurity challenges happening in the country. It’s better the fourth estate of the real rise up and set agenda because we are disturbed by the insecurity.
