According to Punch, the agenda of the meeting is not yet public, but it was observed that the former military leader may have dropped by for a courtesy visit.

Months ago, Abubakar chaired the National Peace Committee that brought all major candidates in the February 25 Presidential election to signed a peace accord to minimise tension during and after the polls.
