Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar and National Leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, today had a meeting where they embraced and chatted.
The meeting was the second such public meeting in less than a month between both men.
The duo met at the Wedding Fatiha of Mahmud, the son of pioneer Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), Nuhu Ribadu.
Mahmud married Aminatu, daughter of Ahmed Ismaila, former Permanent Secretary in the Ministry of Defence.
The event held at the Al-Nur Mosque, Abuja, weekend.
Media Aide to Atiku, Paul Ibe shared photos of the event that had other prominent personalities including Vice President Yemi Osinbajo and Africa’s richest man, Alhaji Aliko Dangote in attendance.

Atiku was the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the 2019 general election while Tinubu led incumbent President Muhammadu Buhari’s reelection bid.
However, there have been talks of the likelihood of the duo teaming up ahead of the 2023 presidential election.
The two men met at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, Abuja on December 13, 2019, which further gave impetus to the rumours. Tinubu’s office shared the photo of that encounter.
