As this will ensure that personnel with clandestine motives are not only checked but are punished for such an action.

ABSTRACT
This article looks at strategic military intelligence and operational
efficiency with emphases on insecurity in Nigeria. Strategic military
intelligence was discussed from strategic and operational intelligence
and operational efficiency was
looked from operational
responsiveness and configuration. This article seeks to determine
how the strategically military intelligence impact Military operational
efficiency in Nigeria. The improper employment and inaccurate
designation of tasks to intelligence agencies to support national
security objectives has been a major challenge that the study intends
to address. In the same vein, the lack of analytical skills among
personnel has denigrates the value of intelligence produce to solve
security operation. The descriptive research was used to analyze the
data that was gathered. The respondents were selected through
purposive sampling. A survey questionnaire was used to gather data
which were derived from the objectives and rationale for the study.
Data for the study was analyzed via analysis of variance
(ANOVA).The result of the analysis shows that strategic military
intelligence impact operational responsiveness and configuration in
Nigeria. The study concludes that military strategic intelligence
impacts operational efficiency in Nigeria. And that the level or
methods adopted by the Nigeria military to respond to the threat of
insecurity in all the different parts of the co
