In what appears as last-minute effort to dissuade the former governor of Kano State, Senator Ibrahim Shekarau, from dumping the All Progressives Congress (APC,) Governor Abdullahi Ganduje on Friday night paid a surprise visit to the aggrieved lawmaker.
Shekarau, a senator representing Kano Central District, lost to Ganduje in the battle for the APC structure in Kano State.
The former governor was believed to have concluded discussion with Rabiu Kwankwaso, a former governor of the state, to team up against Ganduje in the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP).
A source close to Shekarau disclosed to The Star that Governor Ganduje was at the Mundubawa residence of Shekarau on Friday night.

“Yes, Governor Ganduje just left. They went inside and had a discussion, but nobody really knows what they discussed,” the source added.
However, scores of Shekarau supporters booed Governor Ganduje chanting “ba mayi, ba mayi”, which translates “we don’t support, we don’t support.”
