Nigeria to Strengthen Border Security, Upgrade Veterans’ Welfare, Reviews Defence Policies

Here’s a rewritten version with a clear headline, five paragraphs, and polished grammar:
Nigeria to Strengthen Border Security, Upgrade Veterans’ Welfare, and Review Defence Policies
The Nigerian Government has reaffirmed its commitment to strengthening border security, enhancing veterans’ welfare, and reviewing key defence policies to tackle emerging security challenges. This was disclosed by the Minister of Defence, Gen. Christopher Musa (rtd), during a meeting with the Alumni Association of the National Defence College (AANDEC) in Abuja.
Gen. Musa emphasized that the National Defence Policy of 2017, along with its 2019 implementation guidelines, will be updated to better reflect the current security landscape. The review aims to ensure that Nigeria’s defence strategies remain robust against evolving threats.
He also highlighted plans to improve border surveillance and enhance coordination among security agencies. These measures are intended to secure the nation’s borders more effectively and reduce vulnerabilities to illicit activities.
In addition, the Defence Minister noted that veterans’ welfare and healthcare would receive greater attention. Programs to support retired military personnel are set to be strengthened, ensuring their well-being and recognition for their service.
The Alumni Association of the National Defence College pledged its research and advisory support to assist the Ministry of Defence. Their collaboration is expected to contribute to evidence-based policies and innovative strategies for national security.
