The Nigeria Forest Security Services (NFSS) Ebonyi Command on Friday trained 2,000 personnel on Information and Intelligent Management, in Abakaliki.
Declaring the workshop open, Mr Larry Igwe, the NFSS State Commander in Ebonyi commended the turnout of the members at the summit.
The security summit on “Intelligence-Drive Operation” was organised in conjunction with the Department of State Services (DSS).
He emphasised the need for the personnel to exhibit higher level of diligence, discipline and proactiveness while discharging their duties.
Igwe urged the personnel to remain focused on the profession in order to earn the confidence of Nigerians.
Igwe said, ” You are expected to perform optimally and increase your capacity to handle complex tasks after this security summit,
“You must never compromise the profession in any form; do not allow bribery, and corruption hijack your conscience from serving compassionately.
“Your appearance always, must send warning signals to criminals to desist from criminalities.”
He further commended Gov Francis Nwifuru for an enabling environment for the training.
The service also lauded the DSS for enhancing the security knowledge among our personnel.
The NFSS pledged to maintain security presence across the state in order to combat criminality.
Mr Patrick Egwu and Nnenna Ali, both participants, described the exercise as professional and advocated for more retraining.
They called on President Bola Tinubu to expedite action on the inclusion of NFSS into security structure.
