President Bola Ahmed Tinubu recently convened a crucial meeting with the nation's top service chiefs in preparation for his participation in the G-20 Summit to be held in India. The second regular national security council meeting took place on September 4, 2023, at the Presidential Villa in Abuja, with prominent attendees including Chief of Defence Staff (CDS) General Christopher Musa, Chief of Army Staff (COAS) Lt-General Taoreed Lagbaja, Chief of Air Staff (CAS) Air Marshal Hassan Abubakar, and Chief of Naval Staff (CNS) Vice Admiral Emmanuel Ogalla.

Conducted behind closed doors, the meeting traditionally provides President Tinubu with comprehensive insights into the prevailing security landscape in the nation. This encompasses a thorough review of areas where the service chiefs must intensify their efforts, address vulnerabilities, and close security gaps.

Following this significant meeting, President Tinubu embarked on his journey to New Delhi, India, to partake in the G-20 Leaders Summit, extending a special invitation from Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi. While participating in the summit, President Tinubu will actively engage in and deliver keynote speeches at both the Nigeria-India Presidential Roundtable and the Nigeria-India Business Conference.

President Tinubu's primary objective during these engagements is to capitalize on the global platform to attract international capital and foster increased foreign direct investments, particularly in labor-intensive sectors of Nigeria's economy, with the dual aim of job creation and revenue expansion.

Furthermore, President Tinubu will seize this opportunity to underscore Nigeria's allure as a promising investment destination, providing a detailed overview of his comprehensive cross-sectoral reform plan known as the Renewed Hope Agenda.
