Although details of the discussions were not immediately disclosed, sources within the party said the visit was partly to sympathise with Governor Makinde over the recent kidnapping and killing of teachers and pupils in the state.

Another source, however, suggested that the meeting may also involve political consultations relating to the future of the party and preparations ahead of the next general elections.

According to the source, “As politicians, one cannot rule out discussions around the party and issues concerning the forthcoming elections.”
