President Muhammadu Buhari is currently holding a meeting behind closed-doors with the Governor of Kogi State and presidential aspirant on the platform of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), Yahaya Bello.

The President is holding a meeting with Bello at the Presidential Villa in Abuja.

While the agenda of the meeting remains sketchy as of press time, feelers in the party have said the meeting might not be unconnected

More to come soon…
