... Buhari to Meet with Security Chiefs on Monday
The Nigerian Troops of the Guards Brigade, Nigerian Army on Sunday night have mounted an Armoured Personnel Carrier with heavily armed soldiers conducting searches on all vehicle using the Airport Road, Kuje, Gwagalada, Nyanya-AYA axis of the FCT.
SpyeTV News also learnt that via a statement by the Senior Special Assistant to the president on Media and Publicity, Mallam Garba Shehu that, President Muhammadu Buhari has summoned security chiefs in the nation’s capital, Abuja, will on Monday meet to further review and strengthen the security network in the country.
This follows the tension created by the security alerts of the US, UK and other Foreign Countries regarding the threat of terrorist attack on the FCT, the nation’s seat of power.
This has led to panic in Abuja and recently the United Kingdom and the United State in their separate security advisory advised their citizens to vacate Abuja.
Our correspondent reports that, military, police checkpoints were mounted between Gosa and Centenary City, Nnamdi Azikiwe airport, Gwagwalda and Kuje axis, Soka, Nyanya, AYA, Suleija/Zuba, Abaji/Lokoja boundaries which caused heavy gridlock that spread inside the metropolis.
SpyeTV News also gathered that the deployment of the military detachment to the airport road may not be unconnected with the ongoing security efforts to foil any attempt by criminal elements/terrorists to infiltrate the FCT.
