President Muhammadu Buhari is currently holding his first meeting with the nation’s service chiefs at the defence house in Abuja.
The service chiefs arrived at 11:55 am for the meeting, which is expected to be dominated by strategies for ending the threat of Boko Haram in the north-east.
Those in attendance were Kenneth Minimah, chief of army staff; Adesola Amosu, chief of air staff; Usman Jibrin, chief of naval staff; and Alex Badeh, chief of defence staff.
Before the meeting started, Buhari had met with the national working committee of his party, the All Progressives Congress (APC).
