President Bola Tinubu is holding separate meetings with Oyo State Governor Seyi Makinde and Plateau State Governor Caleb Mutfwang at the Presidential Villa in Abuja.

Our correspondent observed that Mutfwang arrived first around 3:00 p.m., followed by Makinde at about 3:30 p.m. The meetings come as political stakeholders begin strategic consultations and realignments ahead of the 2027 general elections.

Makinde, a Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) governor, is one of the few remaining in the party who has resisted defections to the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC). The Oyo governor is widely seen as preparing for a possible bid for the PDP’s 2027 presidential ticket.
