Former Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) presidential candidate Atiku Abubakar, former Kaduna State Governor Nasir El-Rufai, and former Sokoto State Governor Aminu Tambuwal met with former President Muhammadu Buhari on Friday.
They visited Buhari at his home in Kaduna State.
Imran Wakili, a fervent El-Rufai supporter, revealed this in 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.
