Nation Crisis: President Tinubu Convenes Emergency Summit with Governors, Wike,Security Chiefs
Amidst mounting pressure from economic hardship and escalating insecurity, President Bola Tinubu has called an emergency meeting with key stakeholders. All governors, Inspector General of Police Kayode Egbetokun, FCT Minister Nyesom wike, and other crucial figures convene today at the State House in Abuja.
This unprecedented gathering, starting around 11:30 AM, directly addresses the twin crises gripping the nation. With inflation soaring, food prices skyrocketing, and violent crime on the rise, the government seeks immediate solutions.
The Federal Government has already initiated measures, releasing grains to stabilize food availability and affordability. They’ve also intensified collaboration between security forces to combat criminal activities. However, these initial steps seem insufficient given the urgency of the situation.
President Tinubu, scheduled to depart for the AU summit in Ethiopia shortly after the meeting, seeks a unified response from all key actors. The summit itself will focus on tackling broader African challenges, but securing Nigeria’s internal stability is crucial for regional progress.
