Kogi Governor Yahaya Bello was also in attendance at the meeting, which took place at the Abuja residence of the chairman.
It was the first outing of Ize-Iyamu after the governorship election loss.
The agenda of the meeting was undisclosed but a source hinted Ize-Iyamu was persuaded to accept outcome of the election.
It was also gathered the meeting discussed the way forward for Ize-Iyamu after the election.
