Former Kaduna State governor, Mallam Nasir El-Rufai, on
Friday met with the national leader of the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP),
Senator Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, in Abuja, fueling speculation about Kwankwaso’s
possible return to the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).
The two political heavyweights were seen together after
Jumaat prayers at a mosque in the nation’s capital.
El-Rufai was accompanied by his eldest son, Hon. Bello
El-Rufai, during the meeting, according to a report by The Nation.
The meeting comes against the backdrop of growing rumours
that Kwankwaso has struck a deal with President Bola Ahmed Tinubu that could
see him, along with his political followers, rejoin the APC.
Observers believe that Kwankwaso’s return could
significantly boost Tinubu’s chances of securing re-election in the 2027
general elections.
