President Bola Tinubu and former Head of State, General Yakubu Gowon (rtd), are currently meeting at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.
The meeting is the first between both men since President Tinubu became president in May last year.
Reason for the meeting is not yet public, but Gowon is speculated to discuss with President Tinubu ways to tackle the economic and security challenges facing the country.
Gen Gowon was head of state during the Nigerian Civil and a part of the post-Civil War time.
He is involved in efforts at stabilizing the nation over the years, organising stakeholders in peace efforts over the years.
