April 10, (THEWILL) – Vice President Yemi Osinbajo is currently hosting members of the Progressive Governors Forum (PGF), at his official residence, Akinola Aguda House, in the Presidential Villa, Abuja.
Sources close to the Vice President said he would use the occasion to consult with the governors of the All Progressives Congress (APC), on his rumoured presidential ambition.
About six governors, including that of Kaduna State, Mallam Nasir El-Rufa’i and his Ogun State counterpart, Dapo Abiodun, were already within the premises as at 7pm, the source said.

Other APC governors seen being driven in before the 7pm scheduled time for the gathering included Hope Uzodinma of Imo; Babajide Sanwo-Olu of Lagos and Gboyega Oyetola of Osun.
Oyetola, a source said was being represented by his deputy, as he is away in Makkah, Saudi Arabia, for the lesser Hajj (Umrah), fueling thoughts that the Osun State governor’s car might have conveyed the deputy governor, Benedict Alabi.
The meeting, which seemed exclusive to only the invited governors and some of their aides, did not admit journalists in the premises of the Vice President’s residence.
