Atiku’s spokesperson in an interview with TheCable, confirmed the meeting but said he has no details of the discussion.
“I think they met at the airport, at the departure lounge. I wouldn’t have been privy to what may have been discussed because at that point I was either in Kaduna or on my way there,” he said.
Tinubu was said to be on his way to Lapai, Niger state, to receive a honorary doctorate degree from IBB University, while Atiku was on his way to Kaduna for a wedding.
Ahmadu Fintiri, governor of Adamawa state, was also seen to be a part of the meeting.
