Buhari holds brief meeting with Nyesom Wike at Aso Rock

Rivers State Governor, Mr. Nyesom Wike on Monday had a meeting with President Muhammadu Buhari which lasted about 20 minutew at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.

He did not disclose his mission at the villa to journalists. He simply exchanged pleasantries and left.

It is however believed that his visit may not be unconnected with the ongoing actions of the Niger Delta Avengers blowing up major oil installations.

It will be recalled that Bayelsa State Governor, Mr. Seriake Dickson paid a similar visit to the Vice President last week where he said that the government cannot tolerate the bombing and vandalization of oil installations and other national assets in the coastal states.

Monday’s visit is the first known private meeting between Buhari and Wike.
