FILE PHOTO: Buhari with security chiefs
Amid heightened insecurity in parts of the country, President Muhammadu Buhari has met with heads of security agencies as part of ongoing moves to find lasting solutions to the problem.
The meeting, which took place at the First Lady Wing of the presidential villa, Abuja, on Friday, came as voices had become more strident calling for concrete steps to stem the worrisome tide.
It ended without any public statement.
However, it was learnt that the security meeting has been scheduled to reconvene next week Tuesday.
Those who attended the meeting included the Vice President, Professor Yemi Osinbajo (SAN); the Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF), Mr Boss Mustapha; the Chief of Staff to the President, Professor Ibrahim Gambari; and the National Security Adviser (NSA), Major-General Babagana Monguno.
Others were General Lucky Irabor, Chief of Defense Staff; Lieutenant-General Ibrahim Attahiru, Chief of Army Staff; Vice Admiral Awwal Zubairu, Chief of Naval Staff; and Air Marshal Ishiaka Oladayo Amoo, Chief of Air Staff, and the acting Inspector-General of Police (IGP), Usman Alkali Baba.
