President Muhammadu Buhari is currently meeting behind closed doors with former governor of Abia, Dr Orji Uzor Kalu, Igbere TV can authoritatively report.
Igbere TV learnt that the meeting is holding in the president’s office at the State House presidential villa, Abuja.
An impeccable source told Igbere TV that the Abia North Senator-elect arrived the villa at exactly 3:25pm and proceeded immediately to the meeting venue.
This comes less than 24 hours after the Forbes-rated billionaire endorsed the candidature of the Senate Leader, Senator Ahmed Lawan, for the position of the Senate President of the Ninth National Assembly.
Our correspondent learnt that even though, the agenda of the meeting was not made public, however, it may not be unconnected with the Ninth Assembly leadership and Venezuela crisis.
Igbere TV recalls that Kalu, who visited embattled President Nicolàs Maduro last week, had promised to brief President Buhari on the outcome of the meeting.
The former governor, while disclosing that his visit to the South American country was a peace initiative of the Orji Uzor Kalu Foundation, said he would convey a note from Maduro to Buhari upon his return to Nigeria.
