President Bola Tinubu is meeting the service chiefs and the Inspector-General of Police at his official residence in the Aso Rock Presidential Villa.

PUNCH Online confirmed an influx of vehicles conveying heads of the Armed Forces to Tinubu’s residence this afternoon.

Wednesday’s meeting, which began at minutes past 03:00 p.m., confirms an earlier PUNCH Online’s report about plans by the President to meet with the service chiefs to discuss the rising killings in Plateau, Benue and other parts of the country.

Tinubu returned to Abuja on Monday night after spending 18 days on a working visit and retreat in Paris and London.

Several homes have been burnt, and at least 3,000 persons were displaced despite the deployment of security forces.

In Benue, at least 56 people were killed in Logo and Gbagir after twin assaults blamed on armed herders.

Multiple sources said the President was concerned by the security situation and would immediately meet with the service chiefs and the National Security Adviser, Nuhu Ribadu, over the development.


On Monday, a top functionary privy to the development confirmed to PUNCH Online that the security meeting would review the rising violence and the measures to contain it.

“The President will certainly meet the service chiefs to review the security situation across the country and the flash point of Plateau, Benue and Borno.

“He has been getting security briefings while away and giving directives to the security chiefs. So, he will meet his security chiefs and ministers too,’’ he affirmed.

Jagaban should give states the power to arm their respective security forces as an interim solution.

Amotekun should be allowed to bear sophisticated arm with the military and police supporting the training. Same should be done for any security outfit created by other governors.

Then network the Governors, NASS and state house of assembly to hasten the state police bill and get this over once and for all.

You can't hand over the administration of a country to a well known criminal and expect any tangible outcome.
