Tinubu Invites Shekarau To A Closed Door Meeting
According to reliable sources familiar with the schedule who are also members of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Bola Tinubu has invited Ibrahim Shekarau, a former governor of Kano State, to a meeting on Wednesday in Abuja.
The New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP) senatorial candidate for Kano Central, Mr. Shekarau, was invited to the meeting by the APC presidential candidate in an effort to win him over to the party.
DAILY NIGERIAN reports that Mr Shekarau had already reached a deal with the presidential candidate of Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Atiku Abubakar, to join the party and lead his campaign in the North West.
A top PDP stalwart in Kano told this newspaper that the party has started deliberations on structure realignment in order to accomodate Mr Shekarau.
According to him, the zonal vice chairman of the PDP, Bello Hayatu Gwarzo, had intimated the top party leaders in the state about Mr Shekarau’s coming and plans to accommodate his associates.
This newspaper reliably learnt that Mr Tinubu’s running-mate, Kashim Shettima, had earlier met with Mr Shekarau on August 8, but sources said “no agreement reached”.
Although insiders said the former governor had already decided to join the PDP, he – as a matter of formality – summoned his political advisory council, the Shura Consultative Assembly, to advise him.
The council is expected to report today and decision would be announced within the week.
