Presidential candidate of the opposition People Democratic Party (PDP) Atiku Abubakar said he held a closed door meeting with former presiding officers and Leaders of the House of Representatives.
The former Vice President disclosed this in a series of posts on his Twitter handle Tuesday.
He tweeted: “I just rounded off a meeting with former presiding officers and leaders of the House of Representatives at the Yar’Adua Centre in Abuja.
“The meeting afforded a double advantage of seeking their support in building a grassroots network for our upcoming campaign.
“The second benefit is that it provides a legislative insight into some of the reforms we shall work through. Altogether, it was a well-spent afternoon, and I thank them all for honouring my invitation.”
The meeting was scheduled to be attended by leaders of the House, but it was observed through pictures posted on his official Twitter handle that leadership of the PDP in the House may not have attended the meeting.
Reasons for this was that both PDP Minority Leader, Ndudi Elumelu the party’s Leader of the PDP caucus in the House Kingsley Chinda did not attend the meeting.
