President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has entered a closed-door meeting with top security officials amid escalating violence in parts of the country.
The meeting, currently underway at the President’s official residence in the Aso Rock Presidential Villa, began shortly after 3:00 p.m. on Wednesday. It comes in the wake of growing insecurity, particularly in Plateau, Benue, and Borno States.
A heavy flow of vehicles carrying service chiefs, including heads of the Army, Navy, Air Force, and the Inspector-General of Police, into the Villa have been observed earlier in the afternoon.
The meeting follows Tinubu’s return to Abuja late Monday after an 18-day working visit and policy retreat in Paris and London. According to sources, the President had been closely monitoring developments back home and had been issuing directives to security agencies while abroad.
