Members of G5, otherwise known as Integrity Group, have paid a visit to the Presidential Villa, Abuja to confer with President Bola Tinubu on the state of the nation.

Led by Oyo State Governor Seyi Makinde, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) chieftains, former Governor Nyesom Wike (Rivers), Samuel Ortom (Benue), Okezie Ikpeazu (Abia) and Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi (Enugu), said they were in the State House to tell the President about their avowed commitment to fairness, justice and equity.

G5, which is believed to be friendly with President Tinubu, contributed to his victory in the February 25 presidential election.

It is believed that the Oyo State Governor and former governors may take advantage of their cordial relationship with the President to further their political fortunes as well as those of their various states.

Speaking to State House Correspondents after the meeting, Governor Makinde said they were at the Presidential Villa to intimate President Tinubu of some developments in the country.

The Oyo State Governor also disclosed that the G5 members met with the President to remind him of what they represent; fairness, justice and equity.

He said: “Nation-building is a difficult task. You have to keep evaluating what you are doing, where you are going. So, we have to keep seeing the President to let him know what is happening and for this evening, the G5 (the Integrity Group), we came to let the President know what we stood for; fairness, justice and equity and we haven’t changed.”

Makinde said the G5 is collaborating with President Tinubu to achieve their objective for the nation.

“We’re going towards Mr President coming with us on the route for fairness, for justice and equity in Nigeria,” he added.
