President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, two notable figures in Nigerian politics, had a rare moment of goodwill on Friday as they attended Jummah prayers at the National Mosque in Abuja. This gathering, reported by News360 Nigeria, showed both leaders sharing friendly exchanges despite their recent competition in the 2023 presidential election.
Though they recently faced off in a heated election, Tinubu and Atiku were seen greeting each other with warmth and respect as they joined a congregation of worshippers. This encounter was a reminder of how leaders can find unity beyond political rivalry, as they participated together in a shared moment of faith.
Joining Tinubu and Atiku were several other influential leaders, including Bauchi State Governor Bala Mohammed, the APC’s National Chairman Abdullahi Ganduje, former Borno State Governor Ali Modu Sheriff, and Senator Mohammed Ali Ndume. The presence of these high-profile figures added to the significance of the gathering.
