Service chiefs and Tinubu meet for the first time to discuss security.

At the State House in Abuja, the President, Bola Tinubu, is currently meeting with the Service Chiefs under the direction of the Chief of Defense Staff, General Lucky Irabor.

The Chief of Army Staff, Lt. Gen. Farouk Yahaya; the Chief of Naval Staff, Vice Admiral Awwal Gambo; the Chief of Air Staff, Air Marshal Isiaka Amao; and the Inspector-General of Police, Usman Baba, met with Tinubu as soon as he arrived at the Villa on Thursday at 10:53 a.m.

The President’s first official meeting with the security chiefs since taking office on Monday will take place on Thursday.

The meeting may include briefings from each security official to keep the President informed about the state of the country’s security, even though the agenda is not yet available.

Security would be the administration’s top concern, Tinubu declared to Nigerians in his inaugural speech on Monday.

“Security shall be the top priority of our administration because prosperity and justice cannot triumph in an atmosphere of insecurity and violence,” he declared.

“To effectively tackle this menace, we shall reform both our security DOCTRINE and its ARCHITECTURE.

“We shall invest more in our security personnel, and this means more than an increase in number. We shall provide, better training, equipment, pay and firepower.”
