There were strong indications on Sunday that the Vice-President, Professor Yemi Osinbajo, will meet state chairmen of the APC.
A top member of the party, who confided in our correspondent, said the meeting which would be held before the party’s national convention, would be part of Osinbajo’s preparations for his formal declaration to join the presidential race.
“The Vice-President is set to declare his presidential ambition as part of the preparations, he is meeting state chairmen and national officers of the party in the next few days.”
Contrary to a notice sighted by one of our correspondents, the meeting will not take place today (Monday).
Responding to a query late Sunday in Abuja, a Presidency source who pleaded anonymity told our correspondent that “no such meeting tomorrow”.
The Gombe State Chairman of the APC, Nitte Amangal said the meeting of the state chairmen of the party had been shifted.
Amangal said, “There is a new development as to the meeting, I got a text indicating its postponement this afternoon (Sunday). On Saturday, it was clear that we were supposed to leave for the meeting but as I speak there has been another message saying it will not hold.”
