PDP Heavyweights Storm Aso Rock! Tinubu’s Meeting Sparks Rumours Of Mega Political Realignment

President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, on Saturday evening, held a closed-door meeting with several notable figures from the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), including the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, and three former governors—Ayodele Fayose (Ekiti), Samuel Ortom (Benue), and Okezie Ikpeazu (Abia).

The high-level meeting, which took place at the Presidential Villa in Abuja, has stirred public speculation regarding its purpose, as no official statement has been released as of the time of filing this report.

A source familiar with the discussions told Daily Post that the gathering brought together PDP leaders who, to varying degrees, have shown alignment or openness to the current administration.

The source stated:
“President Bola Tinubu today received FCT Minister Nyesom Wike, former Ekiti Governor Ayodele Fayose, and ex-governors Samuel Ortom (Benue) and Okezie Ikpeazu (Abia) at the Presidential Villa in Abuja.”

This meeting follows closely on the heels of Fayose’s Sallah visit to President Tinubu’s Lagos residence on June 9, where the former governor expressed support for the president’s leadership.

Speaking to reporters after that visit, Fayose praised Tinubu’s efforts to stabilise Nigeria’s economy despite ongoing challenges, and said his visit was to show encouragement and solidarity with the president.
