Pastor Tunde Bakare and former Interior Minister Rauf Aregbesola were visited in Lagos by former Kaduna State Governor Nasir El-Rufai.
El-Rufai’s media adviser, Muyiwa Adekeye, revealed this on X on Sunday.
“Malam Nasir @elrufai was in Lagos today to visit Ogbeni @raufaregbesola and Pastor Tunde Bakare,” Adekeye tweeted.
El-Rufai’s meeting with both men comes days after he also paid a visit to former President Muhammadu Buhari in Kaduna.
His visit to Lagos has sparked fresh speculation about his political future and possible strategic alliances ahead of the 2027 elections.
Aregbesola, a two-term governor of Osun State and former ally of President Bola Tinubu, recently defected from the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) following a protracted crisis within the party in Osun State.
Bakare, on the other hand, is a prominent political figure and a former presidential aspirant under APC.
