Security chiefs will on Tuesday be briefing President Goodluck Jonathan on the success so far recorded in routing insurgents in parts of the country.

They are also expected to tell the President whether or not the security situation in the North-East is now conducive for the Independent National Electoral Commission to go ahead with the forthcoming general elections as rescheduled.

This, The Punch learnt, is part of what was agreed at the outset when the National Security Adviser in consultation with the service chiefs asked for additional time to deal with the insurgency.

The INEC had attributed the rescheduling of the general elections to the security advice from the National Security Adviser, Col. Sambo Dasuki (retd.), who reportedly quoted service chiefs as saying that their men would be busy fighting insurgents and would not be available to provide security during the earlier scheduled dates.

A top government official who pleaded anonymity told our correspondent on Monday that “the anti-terrorism war and preparation for the elections would take the centre stage at a meeting of the Security Council scheduled to hold on Tuesday” at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.

The meeting that will be chaired by the President is expected to be attended by Vice President Namadi Sambo; the NSA; Attorney-General of the Federation, Muhammed Adoke (SAN); Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Senator Pius Anyim; Minister of Defence, Gen. Aliyu Gusau (retd.); Chief of Defence Staff, Air Chief Marshal Alex Badeh; Chief of Army Staff, Lt.-Gen. Kenneth Minimah; Chief of Naval Staff, Vice Admiral Usman Jibrin; Chief of Air Staff, Air Marshal Adesola Amosu; and the Inspector-General of Police, Mr. Suleiman Abba.

Other relevant ministers that may attend the meeting are Minister of Police Affairs, Jelili Adesiyan and the Minister of Interior, Mr. Aba Moro.
