Mark, who spoke at the on-going 130th Inter-Parliamentary Union (IPU) conference in Geneva, Switzerland, said the fight against terrorism had grown beyond the confines of a single nation which obviously demanded the collaboration of all nations to combat.
The senate president said only peace and democracy would promote security in a state.
He said all emphasis should be on democracy and global peace that would facilitate development.
Mark said if all nations cooperate to fight insurgency, the perpetrators would have no hiding place.
Deputy Speaker, House of Representatives, Emeka Ihedioha, in his remark, said the growing insurgency was threatening and undermining the peace of the nation, thereby urged neighbouring African countries to support Nigeria to resolve this intractable issue of Boko Haram.
Ihedioha said; “after the Nigerian civil war ended, never have we had our stability distracted as we have now.
“We urge countries like Mali, Cameroun, Niger and other neighbouring countries to join forces to find solution to the problems."
