The details of the meeting between the President-elect, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, and Governors elected on the platform of the All Progressives Congress (APC) have emerged.
OsunDaily News reports that Tinubu had received the governors under the auspices of the Progressives Governorsโ Forum (PGF), at the Defence House in Abuja.
Addressing the governors, Tinubu urged them as stakeholders of the party to join hands with the party leadership and the National Assembly on the election of principal officers of the National Assembly.
The president-elect also appealed to the governors to unite in spirit and faith and work in line with the party.
He, however, promised to carry everyone along in the incoming administration, saying that โwhether you return or not, this is our government.
He said: โWe thank God Almighty for our electoral victory. It was tough and turbulent.
โThe challenge before us is working in unison with the party leadership and the National Assembly over the election of their principal officers. And I charge you to unite in spirit and faith and work in line with the party.
โOnce we know what we are doing and communicating as elected leaders and loyal party men, we will conquer the challenge.โ
Ill Health Rumours
