President Bola Ahmed Tinubu on Thursday convened a nearly two-hour security meeting with service chiefs at the Presidential Villa, marking the first such gathering since Tunji Disu assumed office as Inspector-General of Police. According to reports, the service chiefs arrived at the Villa without their usual official vehicles, making them difficult to identify, and left the premises at approximately 5:10 pm after extended deliberations with the President. The chiefs and the IGP were later identified as they exited the forecourt following the closed-door session. The meeting comes amid rising security concerns nationwide, particularly following recent killings of military commanding officers in various operational theatres. In the past week alone, the military lost at least three commanding officers in charge of forward operating bases, following a surge of attacks on security formations and personnel, especially in the North-East where Boko Haram and Islamic State West Africa Province insurgents have intensified assaults. Notable incidents include the attack on Ngoshe in Borno State, which resulted in abductions, as well as separate attacks on Konduga, Marte, Jakana, and Mainok, all in Borno State. Thursday’s security meeting is IGP Disu’s first formal engagement with the President and service chiefs since his appointment on February 28, 2026, following the resignation of his predecessor. While details of the discussions have not been publicly disclosed, the meeting likely focused on the recent spike in attacks on security personnel, the vulnerability of communities in the North-East, and coordination among security agencies.
