Governor Peter Obi of Anambra State made this known when he briefed newsmen after a six-hour meeting.

“The deliberations on these other issues would continue in our subsequent meetings until reasonable conclusion was reached”, he said.
Governors Theodore Orji of Abia, Martin Elechi of Ebonyi, Sullivan Chime of Enugu, Deputy Governor of Imo, Mr. Eze Madumere, and Finance Minister, Dr. Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, attended the meeting.
The others are Minister of Health, Prof. Dr Onyebuchi Chukwu; Special Adviser to the President on Inter-Party Affairs, Senator Ben Obi, and a member of the House of Representatives, Ogbuefi Ozomgbachi. (NAN)
