In a statement in Ado-Ekiti yesterday by the Chief Press Secretary to the Ekiti State Governor, Mr Idowu Adelusi, the  meeting would be in furtherance of the resolve of the governors of the six states of the South-West to meet on a regular basis in order to continue to pursue a unified framework for tackling the development challenges of the region.

At their last meeting hosted by the Oyo State Government in Ibadan on 21 November, 2016, it was resolved that the next meeting for the Forum should be hosted by the Ekiti State Government.

This meeting is expected to take some critical decisions in respect of the mission of the Development Agenda for Western Nigeria, for which all the state governments have declared their commitment.

Governors from Ekiti, Osun, Ondo, Oyo, Ogun and Lagos are to attend the meeting.
