The agenda of the meeting was not known as of press time, but it comes amid plans by opposition politicians to map out strategies to trounce the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) and win the 2027 presidential election.
Atiku deputized Obasanjo from May 1999 to May 2007. Atiku, the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in 2023, came second after President Bola Tinubu of the APC, who won the poll.
Atiku, 78, has been in the race to become Nigeria’s president for at least three decades.
