As the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) fine-tunes modalities for its much-delayed National Convention scheduled to hold on Saturday, March 26, President Muhammadu Buhari is right now in a meeting with APC Governors at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.
The meeting, which was reportedly called by Buhari, is believed to be focused on ensuring the ruling party holds a successful National Convention on Saturday.
The Governors arrived at the vicinities of the Aso Rock Presidential Villa after the weekly virtual Federal Executive Council (FEC) meeting.
