President Bola Tinubu is currently meeting with former Governors of Rivers State, Nyesom Wike, and Kaduna State, Mallam Nasir el-Rufai at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.

The two former governors are ministerial nominees but while Wike was screened and confirmed by the Senate, the nation’s upper legislative chamber did not confirm el-Rufai because of an alleged security report.

While Wike came at about 1:40 pm, el-Rufai entered the presidential wing of Aso Rock about 2pm.

A villa source hinted that efforts are on to ensure that the senate confirms Mallam el-Rufai.
