Atiku, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) presidential candidate in 2023, has been actively engaging with opposition groups, including the African Democratic Congress (ADC), signaling his continued interest in national politics and another possible presidential bid. Meanwhile, Yari, a member of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), previously sought the Senate presidency but lost to Godswill Akpabio.
While the exact purpose of the meeting according to the report by Daily Trust remains unclear, sources suggest that high-level political discussions have been increasing in recent weeks. One insider, speaking anonymously, noted that key figures are already strategizing for the next election cycle.
“We’re in a phase where political movements and alliances are shifting,” the source said. “Even if this meeting wasn’t openly political, it’s hard to ignore the timing and the players involved.”
The lack of official details has left room for interpretation, fueling debates about potential collaborations or rivalries as Nigeria’s political landscape evolves.
