Sources said the governors met to finalise the zoning of the party offices in preparation for the convention.
The source said: “There are issues they are trying to iron out. They want to keep the house as one. After agreeing on zoning, there will be micro-zoning. But others are also proposing the option of sustaining the status quo beyond 2027.”
