Following what people termed a ‘below-par’ national broadcast aired, on Thursday, President Muhammadu Buhari is currently meeting former Nigerian leaders.
Although the agenda of the meeting was not made public, issues bothering on the current security situation in the country are believed to top the agenda.
While President Buhari is presiding from the Council Chamber of the Presidential Villa, Abuja, some former Nigerian leaders are participating virtually.
Those participating virtually include General Yakubu Gowon (rtd.); former President Olusegun Obasanjo; Gen Abdulsalami Abubakar (rtd.); former President Goodluck Jonathan and Chief Ernest Shonekan.
Others participating in the meeting are Vice President Yemi Osinbajo; National Security Adviser, Maj.-Gen. Babagana Monguno (rtd.); Chief of Defence Staff, Gen. Gabriel Olanisakin; Inspector-General of Police, Mohammed Adamu; Director-General, Department of State Services, Yusuf Bichi; and Director-General, National Intelligence Agency, Ahmed Rufai, among others are attending with the President.
