President Muhammadu Buhari on Tuesday met with a national leader of the All Progressives Congress, Ahmed Bola Tinubu and a chieftain of the party, Bisi Akande.
The closed-door meeting was held at the president’s residence inside the Aso Rock Presidential Villa in Abuja.
The meeting, which lasted over an hour, took place few hours after former President Olusegun Obasanjo, in a statement, asked Buhari not to run for the 2019 presidential election.
Tinubu and Akande left the Presidential Villa without speaking to State House correspondents.
Meanwhile, the Presidency declined comment on Obasanjo’s statement.
The Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity, Malam Garba Shehu said "no comment yet."
