Chairman of the Police Service Commission, DIG Hashimu Argungu (rtd), has emphasized the need to reassess traditional methods of information and intelligence gathering, stating they have become outdated and ineffective in today's digital landscape.
At the Nigeria Police Youth Summit, he urged for modernization to enhance security efforts, highlighting the importance of adapting to contemporary challenges in intelligence operations.
DIG Argungu in a key note address in Abuja at the Nigeria Police Force Youth Summit to commemorate the 2024 International Youth Day, noted that the old police regulations "appear to be uncertain and obsolete, and also, it is becoming harder for the regulations to keep up with technology.”
He remarked that at this hour of the 21st century, the need to recognise offenses committed by computer and how electronic evidence can be obtained and preserved, cannot be over stated.
DIG Argungu said there was need for the summit to suggest and recommend better anticipating emerging issues "strategize more innovatively about the best policies and interventions for addressing and acting quickly to maximize its chances of success.”
The PSC chairman said with globalisation, digitalisation and computerization era, intelligence gathering work” is likely to become more electronically based and technology driven in business in everyday life.”
DIG Argungu in a press release signed by Ikechukwu Ani, Head, Press and Public Relations of PSC, said the inputs of the youths as the future leaders of tomorrow are so relevant that without it our nation "is bound to fail.”
He noted that the theme of the Summit "Enhancing Nigerian Youth value for National Security Intelligence” is of utmost importance from the crucial issues discussed all over the world and designed for the core stakeholders, whose interest is to employ all possible means for attaining the needed security and safety in Nigeria.
The PSC chairman traced the major challenges and problems facing youths in contemporary Nigeria, which included ineffective educational system that has resulted in unemployment, abject poverty, lack of jobs, ignorance and non functional education.
