Today,governors elected on the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party are among six governors who are scheduled to leave Nigeria tovisit President Muhammadu Buhari in London.
It was gathered that the visit was being organised by the office of the National Security Adviser, Major General Babagana Munguno (retd.).
It was not clear if the NSA was responsible for the governors who were picked for the trip.
The six governors were picked from the six geo-political zones of the country.
Listed among the six governors are Udom Emmanuel (Akwa Ibom), Dave Umahi (Ebonyi), Abdulaziz Yari (Zamfara), and Abiola Ajimobi (Oyo).
The four governors are from the South-South, South-East, North-West and South-West respectively.
OurPunch correspondent could not verify the identities of the two other governors, who are expected to come from the North-East and North-Central.
A governor, who is not among those travelling to see Buhari, said those chosen for the journey were picked outside what he described as the Nigeria Governors’ Forum.
He added that he was surprised when he heard about the journey from one of his counterparts, stating that if the secretariat and the governors had been contacted, the governors would have picked at least one of the PDP governors that had been critical of the President.
