Ganduje pays condolence visit to Kwankwaso
Governor Ganduje had on Tuesday, December 21, paid a condolence visit to Kwankwaso, at his residence over the death of his brother, Inuwa Musa Kwankwaso.
It was gathered that Kwankwaso invited the governor to the grave of his late father, Musa Saleh Kwankwaso, located within the residence of the Senator, where another special prayer was offered.
While Ganduje is a chieftain of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), Kwankwaso has since defected to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP). Thus, a reconciliation may lead to one of them defecting to join the other.
