After Abeokuta Outburst, Tinubu Visits Buhari In Katsina

Three governors of the All Progressives Congress (APC), on Thursday night, accompanied the party’s presidential candidate, Bola Ahmed Tinubu to meet with President Muhammadu Buhari in Daura, Katsina state.

The president is in the state for a two-day working trip.

Tinubu’s visit comes just after his outburst during the APC presidential rally in Abeokuta, Ogun state capital, on Wednesday.

The APC standard bearer had said the naira redesign and lingering petrol scarcity were designed to frustrate his chances in the presidential election.

“Hide the petrol, hide the naira, we will still vote! We will win,” the former Lagos governor had said.

“Even if you change the ink on naira notes, what you want will not happen. We will win. That umbrella party will lose. We will take this government from them — saboteurs that are dragging power with us”, he said.

The governors who accompanied Tinubu for the “face-saving” visit to Buhari are Aminu Masari of Katsina, Abubakar Bagudu of Kebbi, and Babagana Zulum of Borno.

Dikko Umaru Radda, the APC governorship candidate in Katsina, also joined the governors on the visit.
