Prior to the closed door meeting, the President of the Senate, Senator Ahmad Ibrahim Lawan has told security chiefs that the level of insecurity was frightening.
Lawan’s remark was at the backdrop of the terrorists’ siege to the Federal Capital Territory with serious casualties.
Lawan said, “The current situation is now frightening as there is now no where to go and no where to hide as the FCT, the seat of Government is now under siege.
The President of the Senate who noted that there was need for security agents to look into ungoverned spaces in the rural areas, said that it has become so bad that Nigeria is no longer attractive to foreign direct investment.
On his part, the Chief of Defence Staff, Gen Lucky Irabor who noted that issues of National Security must be seen from a collective perspective, said that a lot has happened and more was being done to improve the security situation of the country.
