The meeting, according to the report, is holding at the presidential villa in Abuja but there are no details on the crux of the meeting.

However, there are speculations that the meeting might be about the supplementary budget Buhari sent to the national assembly on Wednesday, July 18, 2018 or the reports that Saraki is on his way out of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).

Saraki meets PDP chairman, Secondus

There are growing insinuations in certain quarters that Senate President Bukola Saraki is warming up to dump the APC for the PDP after he met with the PDP chairman, Uche Secondus.

Rumours over Saraki’s possible defection have been swirling forever and he hasn’t done a good job of quelling them, it has to be said.
