Naija News understands that the arrival of the President at the venue of the meeting around 11:18am immediately signaled the commencement of the meeting which has in attendance Vice President, Yemi Osinbajo, and other chieftains of the party.
Interestingly, while the Speaker House of Representatives, Hon Yakubu Dogara, was conspicuously absent at the meeting, the former governor of Lagos State, Asiwaju Ahmed Bola Tinubu, who was not a member of NEC, made a surprise appearance.
The meeting comes after the party held its caucus meeting on Tuesday.
It will be recalled that Naija news had earlier reported that the national chairman of the party, Adams Oshiomole promised that the party will abide by the resolutions from the NEC meeting.
