President Bola Tinubu held a crucial meeting on Tuesday with top security officials and political leaders at the Presidential Villa in Abuja.

The meeting was led by General Christopher Musa, the Chief of Defence Staff. Other key security figures in attendance included National Security Adviser Nuhu Ribadu, Inspector General of Police Kayode Egbetokun, and Department of State Services (DSS) Director General Oluwatosin Ajayi.

Although the exact reason for the meeting was not revealed, it is likely connected to the rising insecurity in Nigeria. In recent weeks, there have been deadly attacks, especially in Benue State, allegedly carried out by armed herdsmen.

Also present at the meeting were Senate President Godswill Akpabio, Senate Majority Leader Opeyemi Bamidele, Speaker of the House of Representatives Tajudeen Abbas, and Deputy Speaker Ben Kalu.

With growing concerns about security across the country, this high-level discussion suggests that the government is working on new strategies to tackle the issue. Nigerians will be watching closely for any updates on decisions made during the meeting.
