currently in a closed-door meeting with former President Olusegun
Obasanjo.
The meeting is being held at Mr. Obasanjo's residence in Abeokuta,
Ogun State, and is attended by five of the governors.
The aggrieved governors were led to Monday's meeting by Governor
Rotimi Amaechi of Rivers State who also drove the vehicle that
conveyed his colleagues.
The other four governors at the meeting are Rabiu Kwankwaso of Kano,
Babangida Aliyu of Niger, Sule Lamido of Jigawa and Murtala Nyako of
Adamawa.
The governors are members of the Abubakar Baraje-led faction of the
PDP that is opposed to Bamanga Tukur as the chairman of the ruling
party.
The governors were on Sunday prevented from holding their meeting in
Abuja by the police who reportedly said they acted on orders from
above.
