Former Governor of Lagos and All Progressive’s Congress national leader, Bola Tinubu, on Saturday visited the Senate Chief Whip, Orji Kalu, in his Abuja residence.

“We discussed the way forward for the country and this country is important and greater than any one’s personal ambition.

“We have been together and concerned about the stability, progress, development and security of the country.

“The future of our youth is more critically important than selfish and personal intentions,” Mr Tinubu said.
