Security chiefs briefed President Muhammadu Buhari on the most recent information regarding Tuesday’s terrorist attack on Kuje prison.
According to the Minister of Police Affairs, Maigari Dingyadi, leaders of security agencies briefed the president on what truly occurred in Kuje and the best course of action after the National Security Council meeting, which was presided over by the president on Friday at the State House.
The president, according to the minister, instructed the armed forces and other security organizations to take the appropriate steps to ensure that similar occurrences don’t occur again.
He said:
“The President was deeply concerned about these developments and he initiated today’s meeting, to enable security agencies, service chiefs, the Inspector General Police, to brief the Council on what actually happened and the way forward”.
“The Service Chiefs have been given very clear directives to ensure that adequate measures are taken not only to investigate what happened, but also to take steps to forestall the occurrence of such incidents.
“We had a very successful meeting and the meeting has agreed to take proactive measures that will ensure that a repeat of what happened these few days will not be witnessed anymore.”
Mr Dingyadi assured Nigerians of a full-scale investigation into the Kuje prison attack, as he solicited their support in fighting all forms of criminality.
“The President is surprised that what happened in Kuje actually took place in spite of all the security arrangements that have been made to ensure that such an incident does not happen.
