President Goodluck Jonathan had a closed-door meeting with\u00a0the nation\u2019s security chiefs\u00a0on Monday at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.<\/p>\n

Sources say the meeting was a routine one and was called to appraise the security situation in the country across all spheres.<\/p>\n

Members of the Federal\u00a0Executive Council, who attended with the President were the Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Senator Pius Anyim; Minister of Police Affairs, Navy Captain Caleb Olubolade (retd.); Minister of State, Defence, Olusola Obada; and the\u00a0National Security Adviser, Col.
