Okorocha Absent As Buhari Meets With Ekweremadu, S/E Governors

President Muhammadu Buhari met with Governors from the South-East earlier today at the State House in Abuja.

It was gathered that Deputy Senate President Ike Ekweremadu was also present at the meeting.

Governor David Umahi of Ebonyi state, Deputy Governor of Anambra State, Nkem Okeke, Governor Okezie Ikpeazu of Abia State and Governor Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi of Enugu State were also present.

However, Governor of Imo state, Rochas Okorocha was noticeably absent at the meeting. It will be recalled that Okorocha is currently at loggerheads with the leadership of the party over the non-emergence of his in-law, Uche Nwosu as the APC governorship candidate in the upcoming 2019 elections.
