Ostensibly alarmed by the latest killings of dozens of soldiers by Boko Haram insurgents, President Muhammadu Buhari has summoned an urgent meeting of Service Chiefs to find ways to stop the trend.
He has also dispatched the Minister of Defence, Mansur Dan Ali, to the neighbouring Republic of Chad for an urgent meeting with President Idris Deby and his defence counterpart.
Knowledgeable sources said in Abuja on Friday that the president is worried by on the deterioration of security situation on the Nigeria – Chad Border that has led to the recently increased Boko Haram terrorism in the area.

The sources which did not want to be named in Abuja said: “Nigeria has a Chad problem in the Multi-National Joint Task Force (MNJTF) put together to secure the Lake Chad basin areas and repeal the Boko Haram terrorism attacks against all the countries neighbouring the Lake.”
The sources noted that Chad is believed to be having their own internal security challenges and this has reportedly led to their pulling away their own troops manning their own border around Lake Chad, saying: “That lacuna is being exploited by the Boko Haram terrorists, who go in and out of Nigeria, Niger and Cameroon to launch terrorist acts. This is a clear illustration of the fact that terrorism is beyond national borders.”
When contacted, the Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity, Garba Shehu, confirmed that the Defence Minister is going to Chad but said he is unaware of the purpose.
Meanwhile, the military authorities are said to be in the process of identifying the families of the latest victims with a view to making contact with them.
Credible sources revealed that it is the reason the president is yet to make any pronouncement on the matter.
“The President has called an urgent meeting with the Service Chiefs, as well as the fact that families of the latest victims of the Boko Haram are being identified and contacts made before a government pronouncement on the tragic attacks. This, it is understood, is the reason for the silence of the government over the incident,” the source said.

These service chiefs are either not serious or are conspiring.
Fabricated news, nothing of this happened no service chives are summoned.
Which buhari
Useless set of people, heartless people
Adetiran Bolanle NextLevel…..lol
Next devils don’t mind them
They are killing our innocent soldiers…..until boko haram kill their children
Like he has always done but certainly not going to be against the IPOB members and supporters this time.
Are these service chiefs or APC members?
Sack them all b4 they make u get your own sack
The more buhari summons the meeting of the security chiefs, the stronger boko haram and fulani herdsmen becomes, is like the meeting is to give the boko haram and fulani herdsmen information on how and when to kill?
And the stupid lifeless man is still silent no official statement
If d service chiefs are not sacked this week,then both buhari nd them are suspects.
Incompetent service chiefs n great grandpa of a president, that doesn’t hear nor listens
Sack d service chiefs n most top rank officer let all the officers phone be hacked n revelations will b made ..most of them do give info to BH
The appointments of all the security chiefs from the north could’ve been justify if only they were able to find everlasting solution to the terrorist activities in the region, but reverse is the case. Just recently a new terrorist group was discovered and the army has vow not to take it slightly with them. Here is the truth, you cannot fully unleash the terror on the Hausa/Fulani terrorist group if you’re their brother.
The Boko Haram, the Akikha, the Bandits and many more are all from the north and no one from the south is complaining. For over 5 to 6 years now, all the military budgets has been used to combat terrorism in the north and if such is to be said about the south, all the northern elders and emirs would’ve say one thing or the other of how the money meant for Nigeria army is been spent on the south alone.
If only the Nigeria army pay attention to Boko Haram and other terrorist group in the north the way they did to peaceful IPOB members, I think by now Boko Haram would’ve become the thing of the past. Or the Nigerian government should hire Saudi blackwater machineries to help the army as they did in 2016 against Niger Delta militants
Nothing serious comes out of meeting with buhari. This is just for people to think that something serious is happening while as nothing is happening
Gallant and Innocent lives are gone, Buhari with his service chiefs will now share money in the name of intensifying the fight against Boko haram. Buhari will use his own share for presidential campaign, the service chiefs will enrich themselves with their own share. Buhari is fighting corruption and has integrity according to his gullible fans, gallant men are being attacked by ragtag insurgents. What a country
Point of correction jubril don’t have right to summons any service chief
Jubril is confusing
Summoning service chiefs all the time won’t solve any problem.
Hmmm, Eye service resulting from opposition’s and citizens’ criticisms
