President Muhammadu Buhari has received his predecessor, Dr Goodluck Jonathan, at the State House in Abuja.
The meeting which started a few minutes after 11am is holding inside the Presidential Villa, Abuja.
Although the agenda for the confidential meeting would not be disclosed immediately, it was gathered that it might not be unconnected with the recent assignment Jonathan was charged with by the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) as head of the political reconciliation committee in Mali where there is leadership tussle..
The Jonathan-led committee had recommended Government of National Unity in the West African nation but the opposition group had turned down the recommendation
Jonathan may seize the opportunity of the meeting to brief Buhari on the assignment and also say thank you for naming the Itakpe-Warri Railway complex after him.
