Senator Rabiu Kwankwaso and Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola
Aregbesola meets with NNPP leader Kwankwaso in Lagos
Former Minister of Interior and ex-governor of Osun State, Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola, on Saturday received the national leader of New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP) Senator Rabiu Kwankwaso at his residence in Lagos.
The reason for their meeting was not immediately clear. However, our corespondent learnt it was for discussions around politics.
This comes days after Omoluabi Progressives, a group backed by Aregbesola, departed from the All Progressives Congress (APC).

The group’s spokesperson, Abosede Oluwaseun, said members resolved to quit APC because of “ostracisation from the party, suspension and expulsion of leaders without fair hearing, and continuous denigration of the structure”.
The APC subsequently expelled Aregbesola over alleged anti-party activities.
Kwankwaso too faces challenges in his party as the new chairman recently stressed that Kwankwaso’s faction of the NNPP were not recognised in the party.
