Governors under the platform of the All Progressives Congress, APC, have arrived Daura, President Muhammadu Buhari’s hometown, for a private meeting.
The president, who had arrived Daura yesterday after inaugurating a project in Kaduna state, is likely to inform the governors of his intention to seek re-election or not in 2019, Daily Trust learnt.
The report said the president and the governors were earlier scheduled to meet at the Presidential Villa in Abuja, but the meeting was rescheduled for Daura due to Buhari’s engagement.
According to the source, “very serious political developments,” would be discussed at the meeting.
Confirming the development to the news outlet, the Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity, Garba Shehu, said “Buhari would meet the governors in Daura today.”
Mr Shehu, who, however, declined to comment on the agenda of the meeting said, “Yes, that is very correct.”
Also, Buhari’s Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Femi Adesina, said whatever “meeting the president has with anyone in Daura would be a private one.”
President Buhari yesterday evening arrived Daura on a private visit after a working visit to Kaduna State.
