Tinubu, Kalu in closed-door meeting

National Leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, is currently meeting with a former governor of Abia State and current Chief Whip of the Senate, Senator Orji Uzor Kalu, in the latter’s Aso-Rock home in Abuja.

Tinubu, according to sources, arrived at the Kalu’s residence at exactly 4:25pm.

The two politicians were said to have hugged each other and exchanged cordial pleasantries.

They were said to have engaged in a closed-door meeting afterwards.

The source explained that Kalu, before the closed-door session, expressed gratitude to God for Tinubu’s speedy recovery.

Tinubu returned to Nigeria on October 8 after spending some months in London, where he had a knee surgery.

The reason for their meeting was not yet made known to journalists but it might not be unconnected with some political and economic developments in the country.

The visit comes amidst talks that both men are being strongly positioned for the 2023 presidency to succeed the incumbent President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari (retd.)

Both men were former governors of their respective states from 1999 to 2007.

While Tinubu is a former Senator, Orji Uzor Kalu is the current Senator representing Abia North Senatorial District in the 9th Senate.
