The Leadership of the Nigerian Senate on Wednesday afternoon convened an emergency meeting with the service chiefs over worsening insecurity in the country for which the federal lawmakers have threatened to impeach President Muhammadu Buhari.
The meeting holding at the time of this report, is being attended by the Chief of Defense Staff, Chief of Army Staff, Chief of Naval staff, Chief of Air Staff, DG DSS and a representative of the National Security Adviser, and is being held behind close door.
Senate President Ahmad Lawan at the meeting stated that the security challenges in the country have lingered for long, noting that the Senate expected that the situation would have been better.
