In a recent interview with BBC Hausa on Tuesday, December 6, the senator opened up on the purpose of the visit.
He stated that Tinubu had insisted on his visit while he was in Abuja but he was not available and could not honour the invitation because he was in Kano, so they rescheduled.

He was also asked if he would be supporting Tinubu for his presidential ticket in 2023, he replied that no such discussions ensued between both of them.
