Nigeria’s president Muhammadu Buhari has directed all security agencies to deploy all operational and intelligence elements to rescue all kidnapped persons and immediately quell the security crisis in the country.
The president gave the directive on Thursday when he met with heads of security establishments and some Ministers at the State House in Abuja.
The meeting comes after recommendations by the National Council of State over the security challenges in the country.
