Audi spoke in Abuja on Tuesday during the passing out parade of the Basic Arms Training batch 8.
He said: “The nation is passing through an asymmetric conflict which differs from the conventional war the country is used to; you’ll discover that bandits and terrorists do launch their attacks and retrieve back to base after causing devastating and debilitating damages.
“We’ll, however, not be deterred, rather, we’ll remain focused and continue to train our personnel as we also continue to collaborate with sister agencies in the fight against insecurity in Nigeria.”
