President Bola Tinubu is holding a closed door meeting with the service chiefs, the Inspector-General of Police and the National Security Adviser, Nuhu Ribadu, at the Presidential Villa.

The meeting is expected to discuss the rising killings in Plateau, Benue and other parts of the country.

Persecondnews reported that Tinubu returned to the country on Monday night after spending 18 days on a working visit to 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 attacks by armed herders.

A source said: “The President is meeting 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.”
