Atiku’s visit to Buhari was coming barely three days after he paid a similar visit to former Military President Ibrahim Babangida and former Head of State, Abdulsalami Abubakar, at their respective residences in Niger State.

 

A resident of Daura told Channels Television that the visit may be connected with the 2027 general elections.

 

Atiku is a former vice president of Nigeria, serving in that position from 1999 to 2007.
