It also proffered practical field proven far-reaching solutions and guide for decision-makers and security agencies on how to deal with evolving 21st Century security threats where the enemy now resides within. It talks about a critical aspect of counter terrorism that is often overlooked by countries confronting the menace, and that is, the impact of the belligerent rogue states who provide ideological and operational support for terrorist organizations around the world including here in Nigeria.
