President Bola Tinubu on Friday held a closed-door meeting with the nation’s service chiefs and the Inspector General of Police (IGP) at the Presidential Villa in Abuja.
The meeting reportedly aimed to tackle the resurgence of insurgency in some parts of the country and inter-tribal hostilities in other regions.
The security chiefs are expected to brief the President on ongoing efforts to address insecurity nationwide.
The meeting came ahead of the President’s scheduled trip to Rome on Saturday for the inauguration mass of Pope Leo XIV, following an official invitation from the Vatican.
In attendance were the Chief of Defence Staff, General Christopher Musa; Chief of Army Staff, Lieutenant General Olufemi Oluyede; Chief of Air Staff, Air Marshal Hassan Abubakar; Chief of Naval Staff, Vice Admiral Emmanuel Ogalla; and the Inspector General of Police, Kayode Egbetokun, among others.
