PHOTOS: Buhari meets Tinubu at Aso Rock

President Muhammadu Buhari has met behind closed door with the National Leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and presidential aspirant, Bola Tinubu, at the Presidential Villa in Abuja.

The Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, Femi Adesina, announced the meeting on his Facebook page on Tuesday night.

The agenda of the meeting between President Buhari and the former Lagos State Governor could not be ascertained as of the time of filing this report.

Tinubu had on Friday picked the ruling APC presidential nomination and expression of interest forms at the party’s 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 ahead of the 2023 general election.

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.
