The Nigeria Police are now to take charge of the internal security.
This was made known at the first major meeting the president had on his first day at work at the Presidential Villa in Abuja, immediately he resume office on Sunday, 23 days after he was sworn into office.
He operated from the Defence House which he used as the president Elect.
The Minister of Defence Permanent Secretary Alhaji Ismail Aliyu, spoke to reporters after about five hours defense briefing.
He said the Boko Haram insurgency will soon be over.
He said, The President has instructed the Chief of Defense Staff to get the Chief of Army Staff and Inspector General of Police to remove all the military men along the road.
The Nigerian Armed Forces were very ready on this, we have briefed him.
One most interesting thing about it is that we are going out much happier because he has shown to us that he is still a soldier, he has updated and enriched our strategic plans.
We have briefed him President on how far we have reached on that and he has given us some additional assignment, but very soon the center will be on.
This also want to assure Nigerians that with what we have come out with from this meeting, we are very enthusiastic that the issue of the Boko Haram will be over very soon.
He has given us hope that we will see peace and security in the near future.
