Notwithstanding the challenge, Dan-Ali said efforts were ongoing to stop the ambushes being experienced regularly.
The minister spoke with State House correspondents after a meeting the Acting President, Yemi Osinbajo, had with security chiefs at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.
He said the service chiefs were directed to move back to the Command Centre in order to be abreast of what is happening there.
He said it was also resolved at the meeting that the government should procure more surveillance devices that will be able to see potential attackers from far distance.
Dan-Ali said, “We just finished a meeting with the Acting President and the three Service Chiefs. We agreed that they should move back to the Command Centre again and see what are the things happening there.
“We have also agreed that we should get more surveillance devices, cameras that will be able to see distant attackers coming to the position of our troops.
“Also, the period of the raining season is a difficult moment for us. We cannot dominate the environment like what we did during the dry season but effort is geared towards regaining back our areas.
“We assure Nigerians that all these ambushes that are happening regularly would be stopped.”
