meeting:
In a telephone conversation following the
meeting of All Progressives Congress (APC)
governors and leaders with President

Governor Rochas Okorocha of Imo State,
said the President was very cheerful and has
not lost any bit of his sense of humour.
The governor said the party delegation
spent more than an hour with President
Buhari over lunch, and it was very clear from
the discussions that he followed
developments at home very closely.
He said the President was delighted to
receive the delegation and asked each
governor about affairs in his state. He also
asked the Minister of Transportation, Rotimi
Amaechi, about the state of the railways.
When asked to react to all the negative
things being said about him, the President
just laughed, describing such negative
reports as lies. Governor Okorocha said
President Buhari was completely
unperturbed by the C0cktail of lies. He,
instead, sent his best wishes to Nigerians.
According to the governor, Nigerians don’t
have to worry at all, adding that President
Buhari will be back as soon as the doctors
give him the green light.
“By our visit to London today, the merchants
of lies have been put out of business and
Nigerians will not buy the garbage they have
been selling. All those who look up to fake
news can find better use for their time,”
Governor Okorocha noted.
Governors Umaru Tanko Al-Makura of
Nasarawa; Nasir El-Rufai of Kaduna; Yahaya
Bello of Kogi; and APC National Chairman,
