The event, according to him, “is put together by the House of Assembly in furtherance of its extant and traditional practice of involving the citizens, especially critical stakeholders, in its legislative activities for robust results.

“While personal invitations have been extended to some individuals and organisations considered directly relevant to the state security architecture, this notice also serves as invitation to any member of the public or organizations who might have any contributions to make or memoranda to submit.

“Security is a common concern and it begins with each individual.”
