Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar met privately with Senator Abdulaziz Yari, the former Governor of Zamfara State and current senator representing Zamfara West, at his residence in the Federal Capital Territory.
The high-profile encounter, which took place behind closed doors, drew immediate attention from political observers as neither Atiku nor Yari addressed waiting journalists afterward, and no official statement has been released on the agenda.Sources close to the development, cited by Daily Trust, confirmed the meeting occurred but provided no details on discussions.
The lack of public disclosure has fueled speculation that the talks could relate to early maneuvering ahead of the 2027 general elections, including potential alliances, coalition-building, or cross-party consultations in the North-West geopolitical zone.
Senator Yari, a prominent figure in the All Progressives Congress (APC) with significant influence in Zamfara and broader northern politics, has previously been linked to various political realignments. Atiku, the 2023 Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) presidential candidate and a key opposition leader, has been actively engaging stakeholders across party lines in recent months as discussions intensify around challenging the ruling party in the next cycle.
This is not the first reported interaction between the two politicians, though past meetings (such as those in earlier years) were often tied to regional or factional dynamics in Zamfara.
