Information available to 247urepots.com indicates that the Kano state governor, Malam Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso recently concluded a closed door meeting with his counterpart Jigawa state governor Alhaji Sule Lamido at the Jigawa State government house. The meeting, according to available information was held to discuss possible decamp from the Peoples Democratic Party [PDP] to another opposition party.
It was reliably gathered that the two governor who are members of the G7 are said to have agreed on principle to abandon the PDP. A source close to Kwankwaso states that Kwankwaso appears overly bitter of the proposed national dialogue. In his words. Kwankwaso sees the national as “baseless to Nigeria”. The “national dialogue has no importance to Nigerians”.
But Kwankwaso in talking to reporters after the closed door meeting denied that the closed door meeting had to do with the possible defection from their party to a new party. “We came together to share ideas that will help in executing meaningful projects that will assist our people who voted us them into power”. He also denied the speculation that he was at Jigawa to convince
Lamido to defect from the ruling party to the All Progressive Congress [APC].
