The agenda of the meeting was not made public even as neither the Chairman of the APC Governorship Forum, Rochas Okorocha nor the newly elected chairman of the party, Adams Oshiomwole was seen as at the time the meeting started.

The three governors who are all from the North West at the meeting were Chairman of the Nigeria Governors Forum (NGF) and Governor of Zamfara State, Abdulaziz Yari, and his Jigawa and Kebbi counterparts, Abubakar Badaru and Bagudu Atiku, respectively.
