Asiwaju Bola Tinubu is not envisaging any political realignment with Atiku Abubakar despite their close business and personal relationships, the media aide of the National Leader of the All Progressives Congress, Tunde Rahman said on Saturday evening.

His assertion was to debunk political insinuations that arose from a meeting between the two men at the Abuja Airport on Friday evening.

Conspiracy theorists had upon the meeting alleged that Tinubu led a delegation to welcome Abuja Atiku back to the country and that it was indicative of a realignment of forces that could see both former political allies realign ahead of the 2023 presidential election in which both men are the leading aspirants in their two parties.

Affirming that there is no plot between Tinubu and Atiku, Rahman in a twitter post said:

“On the Asiwaju Bola Tinubu @ Alhaji Atiku Abubakar video at Abuja Airport. It was a chance meeting at the airport in Abuja. Former Vice-President Atiku Abubakar had arrived first and was in his car about to leave when Asiwaju arrived.

“As he was informed about him, Asiwaju walked up to Atiku vehicle to exchange pleasantries with him.

“Those making an issue out of this noble gesture should have a rethink. For the life of me, are they saying if two persons know each other and are friends, they must not greet each other as mature persons again because they find themselves in opposing political parties? If that’s their thinking, this is a warped idea!”
