The meetings which was convened by the chairman of the Progressives Governors Forum, Hope Uzodimma of Imo state had in attendance almost all the governors on the party’s platform save for Governor Babajide Sanwoolu of Lagos state and Akwa Ibom state Governor Umo Eno who was represented by his deputy
The Governors later proceeded to the presidential villa at around 8pm, ostensibly to brief the president on their decision.
The Governors later held a second meeting with the state chairmen of the APC to secure their endorsement.
Afterwards, Yilwatda was tied up in a long meeting with a few party leaders till about 3am.
