The event took place at the <strong>Army Resource Centre, Abuja<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to the FCT Commandant, sustainable growth can only be achieved through deliberate investment in strategic literacy for leaders and practitioners, the development of innovation ecosystems that connect government, academia, and industry, and the promotion of citizen engagement through transparent and open access to information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He emphasized that real-time intelligence plays a critical role in threat prevention, faster response times, improved community awareness, stronger early warning systems, effective strategic planning, and the optimal deployment of resources.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dr. Odumosu further explained that the FCT Command has adopted a forward-looking model focused on modernizing operational management, enhancing strategic foresight, and strengthening inter-agency collaboration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He stressed that information is only valuable when it informs sound strategy, just as strategy is only effective when it is built on reliable information. He added that human capital remains the cornerstone of sustainable growth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Commandant commended CIISM for consistently providing platforms where ideas, knowledge, and innovation converge to shape the future of governance, security, and national development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe live in an era defined by rapid technological change, shifting economic landscapes, and complex security dynamics. The institutions that will survive\u2014and indeed lead\u2014are those that recognize the central role of information and strategy in driving sustainable growth,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He concluded by noting that sustainable growth is no longer a passive ideal but a strategic necessity, calling on stakeholders to commit to building institutions that think intelligently, act strategically, and grow sustainably for the benefit of all Nigerians and future generations.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Commandant of the Nigeria
