The National Counter-Terrorism Centre, Office of the National Security Adviser has said that the proliferation of drones constitutes a threat to aviation security.
The National Coordinator of the Centre, Rear Admiral YAMINU MUSA (retired) disclosed this at the Nigeria-United Kingdom joint threats and counter-drones workshop in Abuja.
According to the Centre, the use of drones has transformed from survey equipment to weapons.
The centre also said drones have changed the way wars, especially low-intensity conflicts, are being waged.
It therefore called for proactive strategies to address the challenges posed by the rapid increase in drone usage.
