Imo Governor Hope Uzodinma and one of his predecessors, Owelle Rochas Okorocha, were at the Presidential Villa, Abuja on Thursday to see President Bola Tinubu.
Uzodinma and Okorocha, who have been political adversaries in recent years, were sighted arriving the Villa around 6:07 pm with the National Chairman of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), Abdullahi Ganduje.
However, in less than five minutes, the trio came out in company of the Governor of Lagos Babajide Sanwo-Olu.
It was however gathered the President had already left the office before their arrival.
The trio of Ganduje, Uzodinma and Okorocha also went to Vice President Kashim Shettima’s office.
A presidential source said Ganduje may take Uzodinma, who is the Chairman of the Progressive Governors Forum, his estranged party man Okorocha and Governor Sanwo-Olu to the President’s residence.
Although the agenda of the meeting was not made public at the time of filing this report, it may not be unconnected with the face- off between Uzodinma and Okorocha, who was Imo Governor between 2011 and 2019.
The Committee set up by the Imo State Government on recovery of public property recently indicted Okorocha and some of his political allies.
