VP Shettima presides over NEC Meeting, Rivers Sole Administrator In Attendance
Vice President Kashim Shettima is currently presiding over the National Economic Council (NEC) meeting at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.
In a surprising development, the Sole Administrator of Rivers State, Ibok-Ete Ibas, is present at the meeting, marking one of his first major appearances at the federal level since his appointment.
Also in attendance is the Governor of Delta State, Sheriff Oborevwori, who recently defected from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC). His presence has further stirred political discussions, especially in light of his recent switch in party allegiance.
The NEC, which comprises State Governors, the Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria, and other key government officials, is expected to deliberate on pressing economic matters affecting the country.
