The NIA is in charge of promoting & protecting Nigerians national interests , international cooperation, promoting African integration and unity also a front burner for gathering intelligence for nigeria from outside nigeria using espionage, diplomacy and impersonation .
The NIA is all about promoting the Nigerians National interest through covert or overt means. The NIA with the past president of nigeria administration is responsible for re-energizing what we know as the MNJTF which has greatly helped in the fight against terrorism in Africa.
The NIA is also very much intertwined with the Nigerians foreign service , it is the intelligence arm of the Nigeria foreign service while the ministry of foreign affairs is the diplomatic arm, (fact is you would never know the difference being how covert NIA is)
How covert is the NIA?
The fact is we donβt know also but we have little insights from assets.
The NIA has its headquarters in Abuja , Nigeria. It is said that the compound is so protected and covert , that even the guards at the entrance have pseudonym on their name tags .

Intelligence officers at the field in different parts of the world are their covers till they retire or π , even when they come home . Eg (a doctor cover is a doctor in Nigerian and abroad no matter the place ) and also NIA see themselves as a family βonce NIA always NIAβ
Officers in the NIA go through a very rigorous training process for 2-3 years which makes them well groomed intelligence officers , they are trained tactically in nigeria by the Army, Navy, Airforce and the DSS , then also have a 12 months training with the foreign service
To be Diplomats.
The NIA recruits the brightest of minds in Nigeria most often masters and PhD holders also officers can be recruited fresh out of highschool. For their special operations team , officers are also recruited from the armed forces and state security agencies

The MFA is one of the covers of NIA officers giving them a diplomatic cover , they can be placed in any Nigerian embassy or high commission, also other government establishments and organizations with offices abroad provide solid covers for NIA officers
NIA officers are also responsible for identifying and apprehending anyone who is seen as a security threat to nigeria , they also obtain information that can help advance Nigerias vital interest via covert or overt means.
