This was made known by the Acting Comptroller-General of the service, Caroline Adepoju, who spoke at a retreat organised by the NIS, Murtala Muhammed International Airport Command, Lagos State, on Wednesday, October 11, 2023.
According to the NIS boss, acquiring surveillance equipment like drones and helicopters is pertinent to monitoring the movement of people and items along the nation’s sprawling borders.
While recalling that the NIS had, at some point, its own aircraft for surveillance, Adepoju revealed that the service was working to return to that era.
