It is unclear what Adamu’s meeting with the governors was about, but it held after the critical Aso Rock gathering.
Among those who visited Adamu were Governors Simon Lalong (Plateau), Abdullahi Sule (Nasarawa), Yahaya Bello (Kogi), Sani Bello (Niger) and Abdulrahman Abdulrazaq (Kwara).
The governors are all from the North Central, where Adamu, a former Nasarawa governor, hails from.
Its unclear if it was a purely strategic meeting or that of an endorsement.
The ruling party has fixed its convention for March 26, 2022.
