The Senate Leader, Ali Ndume, on Tuesday led his colleagues, Dino Melaye and Monsurat Sunmonu, among others to meet with Vice President Yemi Osinbajo at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.
At the end of the closed door session, Ndume told State House correspondents that there was no big deal about the parley.
He, however, said the meeting reviewed some developments in the polity, including the issue of the 2016 budget currently before the National Assembly.
He said: “This government is our government.
“I am the Senate Leader in this government.
“So my coming here today is not supposed to be a new thing.
“My coming here should even be more regular.
“This is not the first time we are coming here.
“But this is the first time we are having the Vice President as acting President.
“That is one of the reasons why we are here.
“This is because we are setting a new example.
“During the previous government, the President will just go and leave the place blank.
