 Indication to this surfaces today around 3;49pm,  when all the 20 Local Government chairmen in the state arrived together at the governor's and moved  to the Press Centre to await the arrival of the governor. 

Barely some few minutes after their arrival, government  delegation led by the Secretary to the state government .Mr.tokunbo Talabi, Commissioner Designate,Mr Dapo .Okubadejo, Deputy chief of Staff, Mr.Emmanuel Taiwo and some Permanent Secretaries also arrived  and went in  to meet the LG chairmen.



 Earlier, the chairmen had moved in twos and threes into the Press Centre, while the writer of the letter, the chairman of Ijebu East  Local Government,  Hon.Wale Adedayo walked in alone into the centre.

As at the time of filling in this report, the chairmen are still waiting for the arrival of the governor while discussion has been going on between the chairmen and government delegation.

 The Governor, who is expected  be at the meeting is engaged in another crucial meeting with the state legislators.
