Retired generals set agenda as Tinubu meets Service Chiefs

Retired generals on Monday set an agenda for the new service chiefs on how they can overcome the security challenges confronting the country. Speaking against the backdrop of the insurgency in the North-East, banditry in the North-West and other criminal activities and killings across the country, the former military officers admonished the security chiefs to study their predecessors and improve on their weaknesses.

The ex-servicemen handed down the advice hours after the security chiefs held a meeting with President Bola Tinubu at the Presidential Villa where he charged them to work with the National Security Adviser, Nuhu Ribadu and the acting Inspector-General of Police, Kayode Egbetokun, as a team to address insecurity. Monday’s meeting was Tinubu’s first known in-person engagement with the security heads since their appointment on June 19.So This Happened (108) reviews Yoruba Nation Rally, Prince Charles’ promotion of | Punch
