Governors of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) are reportedly meeting with former president

According to a tweet by Channels Television politics correspondent, Seun Okinbaloye, the meeting is ongoing and its agenda is the internal crisis rocking the party.

The prolonged leadership tussle involving the Ali Modu Sheriff faction and the Ahmed Makarfi-led National Caretaker Committee of the party has deepened the animosity amongst its members.

The PDP had been thrown into chaos following its shocking loss in the 2015 presidential election, which was won by President Muhammadu Buhari of the All progressives Congress (APC).
