A Blog Script to the New Minister of Defence, General C.G. Musa Nigeria is at a turning point. Insecurity—whether insurgency in the Northeast, banditry in the Northwest, or kidnapping across the country—has tested the nation’s strength for years. Now that General C.G. Musa has been appointed the Minister of Defence, many Nigerians are hoping for a fresh start. This blog script offers clear, practical advice on how he can steer the Defence Ministry toward meaningful and lasting change. 1.

The proposal has prompted public debate: supporters argue it will broaden access and programmes; opponents fear dilution of a hard-won technological mandate. Below I set out a balanced, evidence-based view of the advantages and disadvantages of that change, then give a recommendation tailored to the people of Bauchi and to Nigeria within the wider context of a technology-driven, AI-centred world. (Recent coverage: the Senate moved the bill and it has been reported in national papers; ATBU management later issued clarifications distancing itself from some steps in the process).
