\"CDS<\/p>\n

The Chief of Defence Staff, Gen. Olufemi Oluyede, has called for the support of civilians and host communities in the fight against terrorism.<\/p>\n

Oluyede made the call while speaking to newsmen on the sidelines of the 2026 Chief of Naval Staff (CNS) annual retreat on Tuesday in Abuja.<\/p>\n

According to Oluyede, there is a need for jointness and synergy among all key security stakeholders.<\/p>\n

Oluyede, whose philosophy for security lays heavy emphasis on synergy, said that jointness goes beyond inter-agency cooperation and also includes the civilians and communities.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is important for us to continue to emphasise jointness because no single service can do the job alone, it requires a collective effort.\u201d<\/p>\n

He said the armed forces are collectively doing their very best to make Nigeria safer, adding that what they require from Nigerians are support, prayers and intelligence reports.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf you see anything, you should tell us because everything we\u2019re doing relies on intelligence, and for that, we need community support,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

He said the support provided by Nigerians would aid push the country forward on all fronts.<\/p>\n

He assured Nigerians that things would continue to get better. (NAN)<\/p>\n
