Rabiu Kwankwaso, former Governor of Kano State and 2023 presidential candidate, paid a courtesy visit to Seyi Makinde at the Governor’s Office in Ibadan.
The visit, which included a closed-door meeting, was described by Kwankwaso as “more about personal friendship than party politics,” despite his entourage—including Ajid Ahmed and Ladipo Johnson—attending to inaugurate the NNPP’s new state office in Oyo State.
Kwankwaso highlighted his long political history with the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), noting that he helped form the party in 1998, served as Kano State governor under it in 1999, and later joined the All Progressives Congress before becoming National Leader of the NNPP.
He emphasised that the visit was aimed at consolidating the longstanding cordial relationship with Makinde and strengthening NNPP’s structure in Oyo State ahead of the 2027 general election.
