What G5 discussed with Tinubu – Makinde

Governor Seyi Makinde of Oyo State has said the G5 discussed national issues with President Bola Tinubu on Thursday in Abuja.

Better known as the Integrity Group, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) chieftains visited the President at the State House.

The delegation included former Governors Okezie Ikpeazu (Abia), Samuel Ortom (Benue), Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi (Enugu) and Nyesom Wike (Rivers).

Makinde informed reporters that the parley centred on nation-building which he said required evaluation and consultation.

“Nation-building is a difficult task. You have to keep evaluating. We have to keep seeing the President, to let him know what is happening.

“The G-5, the Integrity Group, came to let the President know what we stand for: fairness, justice and equity,” he added.

The Oyo helmsman and Wike have now met with Tinubu at the Presidential Villa twice this week.

The G5 was formed after former Vice President Atiku Abubakar emerged as the PDP presidential candidate in May last year.
