President
Goodluck Jonathan's meeting scheduled for 9pm on Monday night took off heavily
shielded from coverage by the media.
Earlier
however 3 Governors: Theodore Orji of Abia, Emmanuel Uduaghan of Delta and
Ibrahim Shema of Katsina as well as Acting Governor of Taraba Garba Umar met
with the President.
These
Governors preferred to keep sealed lips about their mission to State House,
Abuja where they met behind closed doors with the President.
But it
is not unlikely that they came to brief the President and get an inkling about
what his mind was ahead of the pm meeting.
Thereafter,
they joined up with the Jonah Jang faction at its secretariat in Maitama, Abuja
in closed door session.
Interestingly
the same 16 Governors in the breakaway faction: 14 Governors, 1 Deputy Governor
and 1 Acting Governor were at this meeting
This
is despite Governor Rotimi Amaechi's warning to Governor Jang to stop
impersonating him as Chairman of the Governors' Forum.
Governor Jang however defended the number of
Governors that attended the meeting noting that only 12 Governors to form a
quorum.
