The meeting followed another audacious attack on a military barracks on Thursday night by rampaging insurgents at Bama, the headquarters of Bama Local Government area.
Jonathan confirmed the meeting with security chiefs in the morning of Friday while speaking at the decoration ceremony of newly promoted generals of the Armed Forces.
He said, "I remember when I came in, I had had a meeting with the service chiefs and the Inspector General of Police because of what happened in Bama yesterday."
The President did not give details of the attack which culminated in the meeting before he attended the decoration ceremony scheduled for 8am.
Investigations however revealed that the Special Forces killed 30 insurgents at a riverside community in Bama while they were trying to get water from the river in the morning on Thursday.
The incident was said to have angered the insurgents, who attacked the Bama barracks in very large number on Thursday night. Click to signup for FREE news updates, latest information and hottest gists everyday
