Acting President Yemi Osinbajo has directed the security
chiefs to protect the lives and property
of all Nigerians everywhere.
The directive was the acting president's response to the
October 1 ultimatum given by some northern youths asking Igbo residents in the
region to vacate.
Osinbajo's spokesman, Laolu Akande, said via Twitter post
today that his principal gave the directive at a meeting with the security
chiefs over the weekend.
"The Acting President met, over the weekend, with security chiefs and gave them firm instructions on the need to protect lives and property of all Nigerians, everywhere," Akande tweeted.
He also confirmed that Osinbajo would meet separately with
northern and Igbo leaders, beginning from this evening.
"The Acting President will start a series of consultations with leaders of thought from the northern and eastern regions of the country this afternoon.Click to signup for FREE news updates, latest information and hottest gists everyday
