Tinubu and Atiku in Closed-Door Meeting over Buhari's Victory.
Following the success recorded by the APC, its leading figures have started consultations with a view to forming an inclusive government that would take care of various political interests within the party.
It was learnt in Abuja on Thursday that party leaders began the process with consultations with those who had contested in the party’s Presidential primaries.
As part of these consultations, the national leader of the party, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, was at the Asokoro private residence of former Vice President Atiku Abubakar on Thursday.
Although details of the meeting were not made public because both men met behind closed doors, it was learnt that it was part of consultations to work out modalities of filing top cabinet positions.
According to PUNCH, party leaders had since reached an agreement to ensure that all nominees for cabinet positions must meet strict guidelines to complement the high standard set by General Buhari.
A highly placed party member, who pleaded anonymity, because he was not authorised to speak to the media said, “ What do you expect? Our party is proactive and we want to hit the ground running by ensuring that rough edges are ironed out in good time.
“The party is run with a lot of consultations. So, it is not unusual that our leader met with another respected leader of our party privately. I do not have details of what was discussed but I have no doubt it is nothing less than how to move our dear nation forward.”
