President Muhammadu Buhari on Wednesday morning, met with the presidential candidate of the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, Senator Bola Ahmed Tinubu, at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.
According to senior presidency sources, the meeting, which was held at Buhari’s official residence, explains his 40-minute delay before arriving at the Council Chambers to chair this week’s Federal Executive Council meeting.
Presidency sources disclosed that the meeting is not unconnected with with the APC’s campaign and the election which is only about 10 days away.
Another source who spoke with our correspondent said Buhari’s delay was premised in his decision to monitor the outcome of the Supreme Court’s ruling against the federal government and the Central Bank of Nigeria on the latter’s new naira policy.
However, the hearing was adjourned to Wednesday, February 22.
