It noted that although the military had recorded gains against insurgents over the years, the persistence of attacks on formations calls for renewed and coordinated national response.
PSNAFSA urged the Federal Government to identify and prosecute sponsors of terrorism, as well as dismantle their financial and logistical networks.
“The channels through which arms and ammunition are trafficked into the country must be effectively blocked, and those complicit brought to justice without delay,” it said.
It added that the fight against insurgency requires collective national effort, calling on Nigerians to support security agencies through vigilance and intelligence sharing.
