The former Governor of Osun State and Minister for Interior, Mr Rauf Aregbesola alongside The national leader of the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP), Senator Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, met on Saturday in Lagos
According to a statement released on Saturday night by the Osun State chairman of the NNPP, Dr Tosin Odeyemi, The two political leaders, , met at the Lagos residence of Aregbesola.
Although the meeting was held behind closed doors, it was gathered that issues relating to the next political dispensation took centre stage.
While details of the closed-door meeting were not made public, political observers believe the two leaders met to discuss national issues, especially those concerning the next general elections.
It would be recalled that Aregbesola recently pulled out of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), the platform under which he became governor for two terms in Osun State.
Since he announced his exit from the APC, many political parties, including the NNPP, have been making frantic efforts to woo him to their parties.
Commenting on the development, the Osun State chairman of the NNPP, Dr Tosin Odeyemi, said the meeting reflected a shared commitment to strengthening democratic institutions and fostering national development.
Dr Odeyemi noted that the only third force in Nigeria’s political landscape is the NNPP, and the party leadership will leave no stone unturned in making Nigeria great again.
