President Bola Tinubu convened a meeting on Thursday with all 31 governors who were elected on the platform of the All Progressives Congress (APC) at the State House in Abuja. The governors, represented by the Progressives Governors' Forum (PGF), held a closed-door session in the Council Chambers. The meeting emerged from a previous National Economic Council (NEC) gathering, chaired by Vice President Kashim Shettima, which the governors also attended at the State House.
The exact agenda for the meeting with the President remains undisclosed at the time of reporting, but it may be linked to the upcoming general elections in 2027. The meeting occurred a week after the official start of campaigns for the 2027 general election, as per the timetable announced by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).
Additionally, it took place a few days after the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) announced its Presidential Campaign Council members, with former Zamfara State Governor, Senator Abdulaziz Yari, designated as Director-General, and Governor Hope Uzodimma appointed as Secretary.
