JUST IN: Kano Governor in meeting with Tinubu over possible defection

Table of Content

President Bola Ahmed Tinubu is currently meeting with the Kano State Governor Abba Yusuf.

The meeting is taking place in the President’s office at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.

The Kano Governor dressed in white Agbada and red cap entered the villa at about 4:10 pm.

Speculations have been on over the planned defection of the governor from the New Nigeria People’s Party (NNPP) to the Ruling All Progressives Congress, APC.

However, reports have been rife that negotiations have stalled over whether or not to give the governor automatic 2027 ticket.

The governor’s planned defection has been in the news for weeks, causing disaffection between supporters of the Governor and his political godfather Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso.

The meeting with President Tinubu might not be unconnected with the planned defection.
