Several media outlets had earlier reported that former presidents, Goodluck Jonathan and Buhari were physically present at the meeting while ex-Military Heads of State, Yakubu Gowon and Abdulsalami Abubakar joined virtually.
The report, further noted that ex-President, Olusegun Obasanjo was conspicuously missing as he neither attended physically nor joined online.
