Former Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, presidential
candidate, Atiku Abubakar, ex-Governor of Kaduna State, Nasir El-Rufai, and
ex-Sokoto State governor, Aminu Tambuwal on Friday met with former President
Muhammadu Buhari.
They met with Buhari at his residence in Kaduna State.
This was disclosed by a staunch supporter of El-Rufai, Imran
Wakili via a post on X.
He wrote: “Mallam Nasir El-Rufai, together with Alhaji Atiku
Abubakar, Aminu Tambuwal, and other dignitaries, visited former President
Muhammadu Buhari at his Kaduna residence.
“El-Rufai’s endless respect for Buhari is priceless, even
with the best effort of Garba Shehu.”
Meanwhile, Atiku, El-Rufai, and Tambuwal had stormed Kaduna
State to meet with opposition leaders in the state.
Atiku, El-Rufai, and Peter Obi of the Labour Party had
formed a coalition with the aim of removing President Bola Tinubu from power in
2027.
Atiku announced the formation of the coalition during a
press conference by a group known as Concerned Leaders and Political
Stakeholders in Nigeria.
Following the announcement, a former presidential candidate of
the Social Democratic Party, Adewale Adebayo, said Atiku and Obi were in talks
to join the SDP.
He said if Atiku, Obi and other prominent politicians
willing to join SDP can stick to the party’s culture, they would defeat and
retire Tinubu and the APC.
Meanwhile, a chieftain of the New Nigeria Peoples Party,
NNPP, Buba Galadima said El-Rufai was Atiku’s placeholder in the SDP should the
PDP deny him its presidential ticket.
