The decision of the Senate was conveyed in a statement issued by the Senate Leader and chairman of the ad-hoc committee of the summit, Senator Ahmed I. Lawan.

Lawan said with the summit, Nigerians could expect more positive collaborations between the Executive and Legislative arms of government.

His words: “The primary purpose of the Summit is to reassure citizens that all arms of government are serious about addressing insecurity and are working collaboratively to find solutions.

“Out of the whole-of-government effort, Nigerians can expect a higher level of security to protect lives and property.

“The Summit wishes to express its appreciation to all participants for their valuable contributions to the Summit’s success.

“Nigerians can expect more positive collaboration of this kind between the Executive and Legislative branches of government.

“Further, the Senate looks to use the data and information from the proceedings to improve the security sector through legislative interventions and advocacy.”

Speaking further on the event, Lawan said the summit was attended by the Presidency, Security Chiefs and heads of Federal Ministries, Departments and Agencies.

He said the event presented an opportunity to survey the nation’s current security situation and to place all issues on the table in an effort to find short and long term solutions to the nation’s security challenges.

According to him, important assessment briefings were provided by the heads of security and intelligence agencies.

“Summit presenters and attendees focused on the areas of weakness that should be strengthened and the various assets at the federal government’s disposal, particularly, ways to strengthen security through the deployment of assets,” he said.
