A member of the House of Representatives, Mr. Femi Gbajabiamila,
on Friday met briefly with President Muhammadu Buhari at the Presidential
Villa, Abuja.
It will
be recalled that Gbajabiamila is at the centre of the leadership crisis rocking
the House. He was the preferred choice of the leadership of the All
Progressives Congress for the position of the Speaker ahead of the election of the
leaders of the 8th National Assembly.
Yakubu
Dogara, however emerged the Speaker after he defied the party’s leadership to
contest the election against Gbajabiamila.
Efforts
by the party’s leadership to also ensure that Gbajabiamia emerges the House Leader
is currently not going down well with the Dogara group.
Friday’s
meeting was the second Gbajabiamila would be having with Buhari.
Unlike
the first one during which the President met with the lawmaker and about 29 of
his colleagues loyal to him, only Gbajabiamila visited Buhari on Friday.
After
his brief meeting with the President, the lawmaker refused to field questions
from journalists. He said he was in a hurry “to see the Chairman” of the party,
John Odigie-Oyegun.
