President Muhammadu Buhari is currently presiding over another emergency security meeting--the second within a four-day span--as terrorists, arsonists, bandits and kidnappers continue to ravage the land.
This May 4, 2021 meeting, is an offshoot of the security meeting convened on April 30, 2021, at the State House in Abuja.
Every member of the national security council who attended that meeting, is present at this one as well.
The president read out the riot act to his security chiefs at the last meeting and warned that "while the insurgents, bandits and criminals are still at it, he has no doubt that the Nigerian security agencies and all of us as a nation will certainly overcome all the current security problems and defeat the forces of evil marauding about in different parts of the country," according to a press statement dispatched afterwards by National Security Adviser (NSA) Babagana Monguno.
The president and his team also promised that they are determined to decisively end the assault on the nation, and that they will do all that it takes.
