Ganduje, Kwankwaso set aside feud at Abuja airport, fly same aircraft to Kano

Governor Abdullahi Ganduje of Kano State and Alhaji Rabiu Kwankwaso, his predecessor, met at Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport in Abuja on Thursday.

The duo who worked together closely for many years fell out shortly before Ganduje succeeded Kwankwaso in 2015.

Ganduje was Kwankwaso’s deputy during his first term between 1999 and 2003.

He also worked under the former governor when ex-President Olusegun Obasanjo appointed Kwankwaso Minister of Defence after losing his second term bid.

However, when Kwankwaso was finally reelected in 2015, he still picked Ganduje as his deputy.

Despite the ties, both men fell apart in 2015 and were rarely seen together publicly.

But the duo met at the Abuja airport waiting room on Thursday.

They exchanged pleasantries before departing for Kano.
