Despite the solid progress made in democratic consolidation, regional cooperation, and economic growth in recent years, Nigeria has been in the global spotlight due to persistent insecurity. Indeed, the current peace and security is replete with existing and emerging threats that are national, regional, and global in character. The threats are occasioned by incidents of terrorism, violent extremism, election violence, intercommunal violence, ethnic violence, farmer-herder conflicts, transnational organised in crime, and climate change, among others.
In the face of these crises worldwide, it is crucial to acknowledge unity in our diverse humanity and a shared responsibility in tackling global challenges.
