The National Security Adviser, BABAGANA MONGUNO says the Federal Government will apply its full weight to deal with criminals and will not be blackmailed by any group of people into negotiating with those who threaten the nation’s peace. 

MONGUNO, while speaking at the weekly State House briefing, said the present administration is not interested in negotiation with bandits, terrorists, and other criminal elements terrorizing the country.

The National Security Adviser noted that dialoguing with insurgents paints the government as weak and incapable, and said the administration will use military and intelligence assets to eliminate the insurgents.
