President Muhammadu Buhari has met with three state governors elected on the platform of the All Progressives Congress from the South West geopolitical zone at the Presidential Villa, Abuja
The meeting was held on Sunday.
Governors at the meeting were Ibikunle Amosun of Ogun State, Rotimi Akeredolu of Ondo State and Kayode Fayemi of Ekiti State.
The News Agency of Nigeria said it gathered that the meeting, held behind closed doors at the office of the President’s residence, was part of Buhari’s efforts to reconcile all aggrieved members of the party.
It would be recalled that the President had on Wednesday met behind closed doors with Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, the National Leader of the APC; and the party’s National Chairman, Adams Oshiomhole, at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.
The President’s meeting with the APC leader and Oshiomhole came less than 24 hours after Buhari hosted aggrieved APC aspirants to a dinner at the State House.
The meetings were also part of the President’s reconciliatory efforts aimed at ensuring victory for the party in the 2019 general elections.
NAN reports that the outcome of Sunday’s meeting between the President and the three governors were still being awaited as of the time of filling this report.
