Other political heavyweights present was President of the Senate Dr Bukola Saraki who is also the DG of the Campaign organisation of the major opposition candidate Atiku Abubakar.

Other notable Nigerians  that were at the meeting included, Former interim President, Chief Ernest Shonekan and Former Head of State Alhaji Abdulsalam Abubakar
