President Muhammadu Buhari, on Tuesday, met behind closed door with former Lagos State Governor, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.
The agenda of the meeting between the president and the national leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC) could not be ascertained but a source said the discussion centered on the 2023 elections.
Tinubu had on Friday picked the ruling APC presidential nomination and expression of interest forms at its national secretariat in Abuja.
James Faleke, a member of the House of Representatives, representing Ikeja Federal Constituency, picked the forms for the APC national leader, who had since informed the president of his presidential ambition.
Faleke was accompanied by former Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF), Babachir Lawal, and hundreds of members of the Tinubu Support Groups (TSG) to the party’s secretariat.
Tinubu had recently returned from Saudi Arabia, where he performed the lesser hajj alongside some of his political associates and family members.
