HON ADEN DUALE, CABINET SECRETARY DEFENCE DELIVERS A LECTURE TO 61 COURSE PARTICIPANTS AT THE JOINT COMMAND AND STAFF COLLEGE
In the continued and collective endeavour to find lasting solutions to security challenges facing the Horn of Africa, today, Hon Aden Duale was delighted to deliver a lecture of opportunity to 61 course participants at the Joint Command and Staff College (JCSC) in Karen, Nairobi.
The lecture titled, ‘New Dawn in the Horn: Inching Towards Peace in the Region.' provided an opportunity for to elaborate a broad Strategic Security Environment of the Horn of Africa that has faced severe security challenges, among them human and drug trafficking, terrorism, cyber threat, misinformation, money laundering and proliferation of small arms.
Further, Hon Duale took the opportunity to emphasize that Kenya remains an anchor State in the region that continues to offer leadership and active participation in peace and political stabilization processes in the region.
Moreover, he informed the Course Participants that there’s urgent need to tap the youth potential who have in the past been an easy target for radicalization and recruitment into terrorist groups. To wage an effective war against the security threat, we are of the view that the region must leverage on technology and adopt modern security infrastructure.
Course 38 of 2022/23 brought together 43 officers from the Kenya Defence Forces and 18 from 13 allied countries spread across Africa.
Present were JCSC Commandant Major General John Maison, Chief of Strategic Plans and Policy Brigadier Richard Mwanzia, Senior Directing Staff at the College among others.
