Gbajabiamila meets with Buhari again

Femi Gbajabiamila, the preferred candidate of the APC hierarchy for majority leader of the house of representatives, held a closed-door meeting with President Muhammadu Buhari at Aso Rock on Friday evening.

This is the second time Buhari and Gbajabiamila would be meeting, although last month’s had 29 other house members in attendance.

Friday’s meeting may not be unconnected with the imminent resumption of the house on Tuesday.

Crisis has engulfed the house since June 8 when Yakubu Dogara defeated Gbajabiamila to become the speaker against the wishes of the majority of APC reps.

Gbajabiamila declined to take questions from journalists after the meeting, saying that he was in a hurry “to see the chairman”, apparently referring to John Oyegun.
