Just In: President Buhari Meets With Lawan In Aso Villa
President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari (retd.), and Senate president Ahmad Lawan held a closed-door meeting on Sunday.
Although the discussions in the meeting are yet to be made public as of the time of filing this report, the Senate had recently lamented the state of insecurity in Nigeria.
The meeting seeks to fashion out the best way to resolve the problems plaguing the ruling party and other issues connected to the insecurity in the Northeastern region of the country.
Also, pressure has recently mounted on Buhari to convene a National Executive Committee meeting of the All Progressives Congress.
A move many believe will find a lasting solution to the myriad of conflicts of interest in the party.
Just recently many party chieftains decamped to the opposition party the PDP due to what aggrieved members tagged tyranny in the party by the Chairman Adams Oshiomole.
You will recall that a drama ensued on Saturday night when the Ondo State Police Commissioner, Bolaji Salami, prevented the Deputy Governor, Agboola Ajayi, from leaving the State Government House in Akure, the state capital.
It was gathered that Salami restrained Ajayi from leaving with his official vehicle.
The development was not unconnected to the ongoing rift between the deputy governor and Governor Rotimi Akeredolu.
It was learnt that the deputy governor is planning to dump the All Progressives Congress for another party due to the worsening relationship between himself and the governor.
In a 41 seconds video that had gone viral, the CP was seen standing in front of the deputy governor, telling him he will not allow him (Ajayi) to leave the government house.
“You have defected, your letter has been brought to my office,” the CP sternly said in the video.
“I have tried all constitutional and acceptable means to prevent this crisis. You are being used by the governor to deprive me of the constitutional right I am highly disappointed that a policeman of your calibre can be used like this.
