Stakeholders Convene in Abuja to Address Ethnic Profiling in Security Operations
A two-day high-level workshop is underway in Abuja to address stereotyping and ethnic profiling in security discourse across West Africa. Organised by Beacon Security and Intelligence Limited @BeaconNg in collaboration with key stakeholders, the event will be held at the National Counter Terrorism Centre (NCTC) within the Office of the National Security Adviser. Government officials security practitioners researchers and media professionals will gather to explore the impact of language and narratives in conflict reporting and security operations.
The initiative is expected to contribute significantly to ongoing efforts to strengthen peace, promote responsible security reporting, and enhance resilience in Nigeria and the wider West African region.
Join me, @jh_barnett@Chxta@ankaboy and others to discuss the current state of relations between Nigeria and the US in the aftermath of an escalation that saw @POTUS threatening to attack Nigeria if it didn’t stop alleged #Christian_Genocide

The overarching sentiment would obviously be that of praise for @BelloGaladanchi for this noble venture, and that would be rightly deserved. In addition, there are loads of lessons here for the members of the Nigerian ruling class, if they are ready to learn: (i) merit pays; (ii) talents abound; (iii) where there is a will, there is a way; (iv) governance is not rocket science; (v) we have always known that the amounts bandied about in the name of school renovation are over inflated; etc. Well done Bello!!!
@AmirSalehBala It's confounding to see so many rejoice over his fall, forgetting that old age comes for everyone. The clock is ticking, and time will tell. Let's see if they will laugh at their own father's ill health or old age…
It was an honour attending the wedding Fatiha of Engr Mustapha Baba Shehu at the National Mosque, Abuja, today. I wish the couple a blessed marriage. -AA
PEACE OF MIND AT LAST: Today is my first day since leaving office of Governor of Kaduna State.
It has been the easiest day I can recall in nearly ten years - no wake up calls or knocks on my bedroom door, no packed schedules from Adejoh Momoh, no running up and down to meet timelines, and no early security reports to read and issue directives!!
So, for many like me, life is much easier as objective bystanders - but for our younger generation, know that you don’t have the luxury of being excluded from politics and public service.
Please be willing to sacrifice your time and resources to help President Asiwaju and all your state governors to succeed whenever called upon.
To the older generation with experience, contentment and integrity, be available in small numbers as well to serve.
Be prepared to add your knowledge, wisdom and judgment to mobilize the energy, innovation and courage of the youth to address the challenges our nation faces.
Together, we will the be able to achieve the Nigerian ideal that President Tinubu outlined yesterday in first inaugural speech. - @elrufai
