Defense and Internal Security

Defense is very important to any given nation. Accordingly, an AA government will ensure that our Armed Forces (Army, Air Force and Navy) are fully equipped, well trained and provided with adequate and necessary facilities to enable it perform its constitutional duty of defending and maintaining the territorial integrity and properly secure its boarders against external aggression and violation of land, sea and air.

In like manner, the need for national security, particularly in a hostile international environment, which is gradually leading towards monopoly dictatorship, can never be ignored. As the instrument for the protection of national values and peace, the relevance of an efficient national security network remains valid at all time.

Our policy of national security, including not just the normal day to day matter involving crime detection and prevention, but also economic and social security in which various Para-military services play significant roles, in one way or the other. The attainment of our national security goals therefore would entail the incorporation of the armed services, the police, customs, immigration and prison services into our overall national policy.

This being the case, National Security Council will be reinforced as provided in the constitution, which would handle all matters of national security to include the proper security of our relevant economic establishments and infrastructures along with the National Defense Council. The added advantage to her is that this would give them room for participation in the political affairs of the country thereby stabilizing the polity.
