President Bola Tinubu and Governors elected on the platform of the All Progressives Congress (APC) will meet on Wednesday night ahead of the National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting slated for Thursday.
Tinubu will be hosting members of the Progressive Governors’ Forum (PGF) at the conference hall of the State House.
According to a source who spoke with The Nation, the Governor of Imo State, Hope Uzodimma, who chairs the forum and his 23 other colleagues are meeting the president to have a crucial discussion pertaining to recent developments in APC.
As of press time, Governors Babajide Sanwo-Olu (Lagos) and Biodun Oyebanji (Ekiti) had arrived at the venue ahead of their counterparts.
The President is expected to brief the Governors on the Federal Government’s current policy direction as well as the party’s internal agenda, including a possible consensus on a new substantive APC National Chairman following the resignation of Dr. Abdullahi Umar Ganduje last month.
The outcome of tonight’s session is likely to shape Thursday’s NEC proceedings, where key party leadership decisions are anticipated.
