Former Governor of Ekiti State, Ayodele Fayose, visited President Bola Tinubu at his Bourdillon Road residence in Ikoyi, Lagos State.
OsunDailyNG reports that Fayose made this known in a post via X, alongside photos of him and Tinubu.
Fayose said it was a great pleasure to visit Tinubu but did not disclose any details regarding the meeting
He wrote, “A great pleasure to visit the President, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR, in Lagos yesterday.”
Meanwhile, Fayose has advised the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the 2023 election, Atiku Abubakar, to stay away from politics.
According to Fayose, Atiku will be too old when he contest for presidency by 2027, adding that Nigerians are craving for a younger leader.
Fayose, in an interview with TheNation, charged the former Vice President to leave the stage when the ovation is loud.
He said, “On Atiku Abubakar, I am sure at his age, with all due respect to him, he would rather stay away from politics of contesting elections again.
By the time incumbent President Bola Ahmed Tinubu finishes his first term, Atiku will probably be 80 or 81 years old. At that age, what would be the attraction? We should leave the stage when the ovation is loudest. I think Nigerians are craving for younger generations. So, on what basis will Atiku want to contest again?
“I have always said that we can defeat the APC but when you don’t have a party, how do you defeat them? When you complain about APC, but you don’t have a party, how can you make any strategic move?“
