The three reportedly had a private conversation about Nigeria’s political future.
The visit has sparked conjecture regarding potential political realignments in the run-up to the general elections in 2027.
Remember how the next presidential election has become a hot topic after Senator George Akume, the Secretary to the Government of the Federation, stated that there would be “no vacancy in Aso Rock until 2031” and urged President Bola Tinubu to be re-elected.
Despite opposition parties’ stated plans to overthrow the APC, the ruling party seemed unconcerned.
Kwankwaso and Duke, accompanied by associates, held a private meeting with Obasanjo, a vocal critic of Tinubu’s administration.
Obasanjo has previously condemned alleged corruption and Nigeria’s rising debt under the current government.
However, Bala Ibrahim, National Publicity Director of the APC, dismissed the meeting as inconsequential to Tinubu’s government.
“With due respect, I hold Obasanjo in high esteem. As an elder statesman, former president, and former head of state, I do not want to argue with him. However, Tinubu is not their ally in Nigerian politics, especially in the present era.
“Tinubu is head and shoulders above them in modern politics in Nigeria. Therefore, Tinubu is not in danger from the combination of Obasanjo, Kwankwaso, Peter Obi, and Donald Duke, a classmate of mine. During the previous election, these individuals were denigrated.
