Vice-President Kashim Shettima on Monday met with former Kogi State Governor Yahaya Bello, former Jigawa State Governor Abubakar Badaru and other political figures at the Presidential Villa in Abuja.

The delegation, reportedly comprising leaders of the National Directorate of Arewa for Asiwaju Movement, arrived at the Presidential Villa at about 4 pm on October 12, 2026.

Others seen at the meeting included former Plateau State Governor Simon Lalong; Minister of Livestock Development Idi Maiha; former Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) chairman Professor Attahiru Jega; and National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) Chairman Brigadier General Buba Marwa (retd.).

Presidential adviser Hadiza Bala-Usman was also among those seen at the Villa.

The meeting comes two days before the planned inauguration of the All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential campaign committee, scheduled for Wednesday, October 14, in Abuja.

However, details of the discussions have not been made public, and it remains unclear whether the gathering was directly connected to the APC’s preparations for the 2027 elections.
