Tinubu presides over security council meeting

President Bola Tinubu is currently presiding over the National Security Council meeting at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.

The meeting of the Federal Executive Council (FEC) scheduled for today has been postponed indefinitely.

The security council meeting is occurring amid the ongoing nationwide #EndBadGovernance protest, which continued in Abuja on Monday despite President Tinubu’s attempt to pacify Nigerians in his Sunday national broadcast.

The meeting, attended by all heads of security and law enforcement agencies, is being held inside the President’s office.
