Five northern governors from the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) late Sunday night visited the Senate Chief Whip and former governor of Abia state, Senator Orji Uzor Kalu at Kalu’s Abuja residence.
Sources at the venue said upon arrival, Kalu and the governors immediately went into a closed door meeting.

The governors had earlier met behind closed doors with 13 other APC governors at the Kebbi state governor’s kodge in Asokoro.
Some of the governors in attendance included the host and Kebbi state governor, Abubakar Bagudu, his counterparts from Ebonyi, Jigawa, Kogi, Imo, Lagos, Nasarawa, Zamfara, Katsina, Plateau, Cross River, Jigawa, Kano, Kwara, Borno, Zamfara, Niger, Ogun and Ekiti states.
