Osinbajo meets Sanusi, Ganduje behind closed doors in Kano
Vice- President Yemi Osinbajo on Saturday held a closed door meeting with the Governor of Kano State, Abdullahi Ganduje and the Emir of Kano, Alhaji Muhammadu Sanusi II for about one hour, inside the monarch’s palace.
Sources said Osinbajo met with the duo after attending the wedding of his Personal Assistant, Alhaji Hafiz Kawu, in the ancient city.
The vice-president was accompanied to the venue of the wedding by Ganduje, and other top politicians.
Osinbajo later paid a courtesy visit on the Emir and held the closed door meeting with him in company with the governor.
Details of their discussions were not known but sources told our correspondent that the meeting might not be unconnected with the cold war between Ganduje and his predecessor, Senator Rabiu Kwankwaso.
The police in Kano last week prevailed on Kwankwaso to cancel a rally he scheduled for the same day with the governor’s rally to avert a bloody clash.
