President Bola Ahmed Tinubu met with church leaders from Northern Nigeria yesterday behind closed doors at the headquarters of the Church of Christ in Nations (COCIN) in Jos, Plateau State. 

The meeting followed the funeral service for Nana Lydia Yilwatda, the mother of the All Progressives Congress (APC) National Chairman, Professor Nentawe Yilwatda.

The closed-door session, which was not open to the press, focused on issues of national peace, religious harmony and fostering dialogue between the government and Christian communities in the North. 

Sources familiar with the meeting indicated that the discussions were intended to be candid and private, with outcomes to be shared publicly at an appropriate time.

President Tinubu, during his visit to Jos, commended the efforts of religious leaders in promoting unity and peace across the region. 

The meeting is seen as part of broader efforts by the administration to strengthen collaboration with faith-based leaders and address concerns affecting Northern Christians.
