Gov Seyi Makinde Visits Tinubu at Presidential Villa

Oyo State Governor and a member of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Seyi Makinde, is at the Presidential Villa in Abuja for a meeting with President Bola Tinubu.

Makinde arrived shortly after Plateau State Governor Caleb Mutfwang, who recently left the PDP for the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), was received at the State House. Both proceeded directly to the president’s office.

The visit was disclosed in a post by the Special Assistant to President on Social Media, Dada Olusegun, on Thursday, January 22.
