Tinubu invites Fubara after meeting APC Govs

President Bola Ahmed Tinubu on Monday met with the Rivers State Governor, Siminalayi Fubara, at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.

The two leaders met in a closed-door session after the President earlier met with Six All Progressives Congress (APC) governors in his office.

Details of the meeting were not immediately disclosed to journalists, just as Fubara also refused to speak with State House correspondents after the meeting.

However, the meeting is coming closely following speculations that the governor might be planning to join the APC.

Since his issues with the federal Capital Territory, FCT Minister Nyesom Wike, Fubara has not been seen in any meeting with members of the PDP or PDP Governors.

Last week, sixteen members of the Rivers State House of Assembly, including the Speaker Martin Amaewhule, loyal to Wike, left the PDP for the APC, a development the main opposition Peoples Democratic Party, said they will challenge in the court.

The six Governors who met with President Tinubu on Monday are Usman Ododo (Kogi), Umar Namadi; (Jigawa), Monday Okpebholo; (Edo), Biodun Oyebanji(! Ekiti) Nasir Idris, Kebbi) and Ahmad Aliyu (Sokoto).

When approached by State House correspondents after the meeting, the governors declined to state the reason for their visit.

Also the Presidential Spokesman, Bayo Onanuga who posted the pictures of the visit, did not state the reason.
