2027:  El-Rufai meets with Aregbesola, Tunde Bakare

As political movements begin to shape up for the 2027 general election, former Kaduna State Governor Nasir El-Rufai has visited ex-Minister of Interior Rauf Aregbesola, and Pastor Tunde Bakare in Lagos.

Aregbesola, previously a close associate of President Bola Tinubu, recently left the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) following internal party conflicts, while El-Rufai has openly criticized the APC for not meeting public expectations.

Muyiwa Adekeye, El-Rufai’s media adviser, shared news of the visit on Sunday via social media. “Malam Nasir @elrufai was in Lagos today to visit Ogbeni @raufaregbesola and Pastor Tunde Bakare,” Adekeye posted.

This visit follows El-Rufai’s recent meeting with former President Muhammadu Buhari in Kaduna, adding to speculation about his political trajectory and potential alliances as 2027 approaches.
