Declaring the program open, NSCDC Commandant General Dr. Ahmed Audi emphasized the importance of continuous training to enhance professionalism and efficiency.
He highlighted the need for greater synergy among security agencies, noting that improved collaboration has begun yielding positive results.

She noted that the training aims to enhance early warning systems and conflict response, fostering a more stable and peaceful Nigeria.
