Former President Goodluck Jonathan, on Thursday, emerged from his closed-door meeting with incumbent President Muhammadu Buhari, keeping sealed lips.
The meeting between the two leaders lasted eight minutes.
The meeting, which started at the President’s office around 3pm, lasted for about 8 minutes.
Jonathan had arrived at the forecourt of the State House around 2.58pm.
The former president however did not speak with State House Correspondents who had waited to interview him on the purpose of his visit when he emerged from the President’s office.
He went straight to his waiting car after exchanging pleasantries with a presidential staff at the forecourt of the State House and was driven off.
This is Jonathan’s first visit under the second term administration of President Buhari.

Under President Buhari’s first term, he had come to the Presidential Villa about twice for private visits.
The former recently came under fire following the revelation by ex-Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, David Cameron, claims in his book that that he (Jonathan) prevented UK troops from rescuing some of the 276 schoolgirls abducted by Boko Haram from Chibok, Borno State.
Jonathan had said Cameron, is against him because he signed the Ant-Same sex Marriage Bill into law.
Cameron, in his recently published memoir titled, ‘For the Record’, had claimed that a team of UK soldiers had located some of the Chibok girls but “Nigeria’s President, Goodluck Jonathan, seemed to be asleep at the wheel. When he eventually made a statement, it was to accuse the campaigners of politicising the tragedy. And absolutely crucially, when we offered to help rescue the girls we had located, he refused.”
