Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, on Tuesday, received some governors elected on the platform of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) in his office, where he called for urgent action to address dwindling economy and protracted strike by the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU).

The governors were at the Presidential Villa, Abuja, to felicitate Osinbajo, as he recovers from a surgical operation he underwent last month.

At the meeting were: Governors Atiku Bagudu (Kebbi); Kayode Fayemi (Ekiti); Simon Lalong (Plateau); Babajide Sanwo-Olu (Lagos); Muhammad Badaru Abubakar (Jigawa); Abdulrahman Abdulrazaq (Kwara); Abubakar Sani Bello (Niger); Dapo Abiodun (Ogun); Abdullahi Sule (Nasarawa), and the deputy governor of Ebonyi, Kelechi Igwe.

During the brief interaction, The Guardian gathered that other important national issues were raised, even as the leaders agreed on urgent resolutions for the benefit of Nigerians.

The Vice President said: “We all need to work together on these critical issues. We need to think through things, and we need to do it fast.”
