President Tinubu Meets With Security Chiefs, Review Strategies

Security chiefs briefed Tinubu on operations against bandits and terrorists as the government seeks tighter coordination and recent gains, officials said.

  • On Thursday, President Bola Tinubu held a strategic meeting with security chiefs at the Presidential Villa in Abuja, where Defence Minister Christopher Musa and National Security Adviser Nuhu Ribadu briefed him on ongoing security efforts.
  • Sustained military operations have intensified pressure on criminal groups in the North-west and North-east, with several bandit leaders eliminated and some commanders surrendering on Wednesday.
  • The service chiefs resolved to strengthen collaboration with neighbouring countries, while agreeing that intelligence remains critical to security efforts across the nation.
  • Borno South Senator Ali Ndume met with Tinubu afterward to discuss insecurity and economic hardship, urging the president to communicate more frequently with Nigerians about government policies.
  • Addressing coordination needs, officials emphasized that "we have the capacity to handle these problems; what is needed is coordination," as Tinubu has sent a state police establishment bill to the National Assembly.
