Tinubu’s Letter: Buhari takes quick action, meets Oyegun in Abuja
Nigeria’s President Muhammadu Buhari on Friday met behind closed doors with the National Chairman of the ruling All Progressives Congress, Chief John Odigie-Oyegun.
The meeting was held less than 24 hours after a letter written by a national leader of the party, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, in which he accused Odigie-Oyegun of sabotaging his efforts aimed at reconciling aggrieved party members as directed by Buhari was released.
It was believed that the meeting which was held at the Presidential Villa, Abuja was to afford the party chairman the opportunity of responding to the allegations contained in the letter, Punch reports.
Odigie-Oyegun arrived the Presidential Villa at about 3pm and left at about 3.50pm.
Apparently aware that State House correspondents would seek his reaction to the letter, the party chairman avoided them.
As soon as he sighted the journalists who were waiting for him at their operational base inside the Council Chambers Briefing Room, Odigie-Oyegun increased his pace as he was finding his way out of the premises.
