The APC leaders have already visted the Governors of Kano State, Alhaji Rabin Kwankwoso and his Jigawa State counterpart, Alhaji Sule Lamido where they persuaded the two governors as progressive minds to join the APC. The team is expected to woo Governor Amaechi to join the APC with his teeming supporters.

The G-7 governors are Aliyu Wamakko (Sokoto State), Sule Lamido(Jigawa State), Rotimi Amaechi (Rivers State), Aliyu Babangida (Niger State), Abdulfatai Ahmed (Kwara State), Murtala Nyako (Adamawa State) and Rabiu Kwakwanso (Kano State).
An APC chief, who preferred anonymity, told our source that the opposition party will be in Port Harcourt today to meet Governor Amaechi.
The source said, “they (the governors) have received us very warmly and we are encouraged by their reception and response. We are very confident and hopeful that our efforts would not be in vain. We are going to meet  Governor Amaechi in Port Harcourt on Monday.
The party will be meeting with other aggrieved PDP governors later.
