President Muhammadu Buhari has on Friday met with three state governors elected on the platform of the All Progressives Congress.
The President’s Personal Assistant, Bashir Ahmad made this known on his verified twitter handle, @BashirAhmaad.
Although Ahmad did not disclose the purpose of the closed door meeting, sources however revealed that, it may not be far from the ongoing reports of alleged plans of defection by the governors of those states and to resolve the post-primaries crises that erupted in the ruling party in some states.
Ahmad listed the governors who met with Buhari at the Presidential Villa, Abuja to include Abdullahi Ganduje (Kano), Ibikunle Amosun (Ogun) and Abdulaziz Yari (Zamfara).
“President Muhammadu Buhari this afternoon, met with Governors of Kano, Ogun and Zamfara States at the Presidential Villa, Abuja,” he wrote.
