Mbeki, Abubakar, Buhari meet in Kaduna

Former President of South Africa, Mr Thabo Mbeki, on Monday in Kaduna met for more than one hour with the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Major-General Muhammadu Buhari.
Mbeki, accompanied by former Nigeria’s Head of State, General Abdulsalami Abubakar, met with Buhari at his residence behind closed doors.
Although none of the three men spoke to newsmen, it is generally believed the meeting was in furtherance of the efforts to promote peace ahead of the March 28 and April 11 general elections.
Both Buhari and President Goodluck Jonathan had signed a peace accord in January, to demonstrate their commitment to free, fair, credible and violence-free general elections.
Mbeki and Abubakar on Sunday met with Jonathan in Abuja.
