President Goodluck Jonathan made the call on Monday at an international seminar on the Imperatives of Observance of Human Rights and International Humanitarian Law Norms in Internal Security holding at the National Defence College, Abuja.
The president also recalled the directives to the service chiefs to ensure that relevant human rights are emphasised in the training of members of the armed forces in the fight against insurgency.
He however expressed regret that the Boko Haram sect does not feel obliged to basic tenets of human rights, describing them as “brutal and removed from modern civilization,” killing innocent citizens at will.
He said the military was called in to support and restore normalcy but regretted that sometimes such engagements have had negative effects.
He however said that government will do all it can to ensure that any allegation of human rights abuse on the part of security operatives will be appropriately addressed.
