President Muhammadu Buhari on Tuesday (today) hosted Ebonyi State Governor, Dave Umahi at the State House in Abuja.

Naija News understands that the Buhari and Umahi held a closed-door meeting after exchanging pleasantries in the Aso Rock.

The agenda of the meeting is yet to be made public as of reporting time.

See below more photographs taken at the State House shortly before the two leaders proceeded for their meeting.

Naija News recalls that Governor Umahi is among those thought to be eyeing the position of the 10th Senate President.

Others said to be of interest include Senate Chief Whip, Orji Uzor Kalu; Senate President, Ahmad Lawan; Senator Godswill Akpabio; Adams Oshiomhole; amongst others.

Though President-elect, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, had on Monday dismissed reports claiming that he has preferred candidates for leadership of the forthcoming 10th National Assembly.

Naija News reports that the former Lagos State governor made this known while addressing new members-elect to the National Assembly at a meeting organised by the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).

Tinubu also charged its legislators-elect not to rest yet over the electoral victories that paved their way to the next National Assembly.

He asked them to go back to work for victory at next Saturday’s Governorship and Assembly elections in their various States.
