The meeting held behind closed door had in attendance, the first interim chairman of the APC, Chief Bisi Akande, a political ally of Tinubu.
There was no confirmation from the media office of the president on the meeting. The meeting was held 24 hours after Tinubu publicly stated his opposition to the return of Governor Akinwumi Ambode accusing him of abandoning the blueprint of the state.

Ambode, had on Sunday attacked Sanwo-Olu and vowed to fight for the APC ticket with a view to retaining his seat.
