During the committee's inauguration in Abuja, National Security Adviser Nuhu Ribadu emphasized the importance of delivering a thorough, pragmatic, and actionable document that reflects Nigeria's evolving security environment. Ribadu identified terrorism, banditry, kidnapping, cyber threats, misinformation, economic challenges, food insecurity, and environmental issues as some of the critical threats the new strategy must address. He further stated that the National Security Strategy 2026 would serve as a guiding compass for coordinating national security, resilience, and sustainable development, aligning with the President's Renewed Hope Agenda. The committee, led by Major General Sarkin Bello (Rtd.), has four weeks to submit its final draft to the NSA, underscoring the urgency of the task at hand.",
