This is the first time Tinubu will be holding official engagement with the security stalwarts after assuming duty.

Recall that, the president had in his inaugural address on Monday, pledged that security would be top priority for his administration.
His words: “Security shall be the top priority of our administration because neither prosperity nor justice can prevail amidst insecurity and violence.
“To effectively tackle this menace, we shall reform both our security DOCTRINE and its ARCHITECTURE”
“We shall invest more in our security personnel, and this means more than an increase in number. We shall provide, better training, equipment, pay and firepower,” he added.
