The Coordinator, National Counter Terrorism Centre, Major General Adamu Laka has stated that managing crises provoked by terrorists, involves a blend of anticipation, preparation, organisation, and application.
General Laka stated this at the Strategic Commanders' Course organised by the National Counter Terrorism Centre (NCTC), Office of the National Security Adviser (ONSA), in Collaboration with the British High Commission (BHC), on Monday 24th February, 2025.
According to General Laka, Realistic training of personnel involved in crisis management must incorporate the fact that terrorist acts do not occur at the most convenient times.
"Law enforcement agencies need to learn as much as possible about contemporary terrorism. Our experience in counterterrorism over the years have shown that kinetic approaches cannot end terrorism alone. Therefore, we place significant emphasis on non kinetic approaches to counterterrorism, focusing on addressing the root causes of terrorism and violent extremism"
"The aim of this course is to provide strategic commanders with the requisite training required to provide support to their respective strategic operations in the event of a major incident or crisis.
