He clarified that the rivalry among military agencies resulting to lack of collaboration in fighting which hitherto was the bane in the fight against terror has been laid to rest.

“Oh yes, but as I speak with you now, we have better collaboration and sharing of information. That explains why these bombs that use to explode in major Cities and towns have been reduced drastically. Out there in the North east, it’s going to get better because, we now have common communication’’, he said.

Governor Adams Oshiomhole told the visitor that the Nigerian government has not done enough to appreciate the military for paying the supreme prize for the unity of the Country.
