The governorship candidate of the Labour Party in Kano State, Bashir Ishaq Bashir, met with the All Progressives Congress (APC) Presidential candidate, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, in Abuja.
According to Daily Trust, sources said that the meeting took place on Sunday evening and discussions were around defection.
However, Bashir has neither officially announced his defection from LP nor stated whether he would abandon his gubernatorial ambition or not.
