Tinubu speaks on reported London meeting with Wike, others

The presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Bola Tinubu, has debunked reports of a secret meeting between him and the G5 governors in London.

Mr Tinubu, in a statement by his aide, Tunde Rahman, on Saturday, confirmed that the APC candidate was indeed in London to rest before heading to Saudi Arabia for the lesser Hajj but never met with the governors.

Some national dailies in Nigeria reported a meeting between Mr Tinubu and the G5 governors, comprising Nyesom Wike of Rivers, Seyi Makinde (Oyo,) Okieze Ikpeazu (Abia), Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi (Enugu) and Samuel Ortom (Benue) in London.
