Vice President Kashim Shettima on Tuesday held a closed-door meeting with a former Kano State Deputy Governor and immediate past Minister of State for Housing and Urban Development, Abdullahi Tijjani Gwarzo.

The meeting, which was held in Abuja, also had the member representing Bichi Federal Constituency in the House of Representatives, Abba Abubakar Kabir Bichi, in attendance.

In a post on Gwarzo’s verified Facebook page shortly after the meeting, the politicians discussed political developments and affairs in Kano North ahead of the 2027 general elections.

“Today, together with the former Governor of Kano State, Abdullahi Umar Ganduje, and the member representing Bichi Federal Constituency, Abba Abubakar Kabir Bichi, we met with the Vice President of Nigeria, His Excellency Kashim Shettima,” the post stated.

According to the post, discussions centred on politics in Kano North and broader party affairs.

“We discussed politics and political affairs in Kano North, and he wished us success and prosperity in our political journey,” Gwarzo added.

The meeting is coming a few days after Gwarzo was screened as an aspirant for the Kano North Senatorial District seat under the platform of the All Progressives Congress.
