National security policy workshop

    ABIDJAN

    A two-day workshop began on Tuesday at the British Council in Freetown to discuss national security policy, according to the presidential spokesman, Septimus Kaikai.

    The workshop, attended by representatives from the UN, diplomatic community, West African peacekeeping force, ECOMOG, government and civil society, aims to discuss what national security policy should entail given the current economic, social, and political needs of the country, Kaikai said. It is hoped that a policy statement will be issued at the end of the workshop, Kaikai added.
