On Tuesday, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu received the Governor of Anambra State, Professor Charles Chukwuma Soludo, at the Presidential Villa in Abuja. The two leaders held a closed-door meeting in the nation’s capital, with discussions believed to have touched on critical political developments.
While official details of the meeting remain undisclosed, information gathered by Channels Television suggests that it may be linked to the upcoming Anambra State governorship election, in which Governor Soludo is seeking re-election for a second term.
In a notable gesture, Governor Soludo was spotted wearing a cap adorned with President Tinubu’s “infinity” logo, a symbol widely associated with the President’s political brand which many interpret as a public endorsement of Tinubu’s potential bid for a second term in office.
The visit also comes amid swirling rumours about President Tinubu’s health, following reports of a sudden deterioration that allegedly necessitated a medical trip abroad. Speculation over his health and absence from public events has dominated recent media discourse.
For Governor Soludo, the Abuja meeting aligns with his own political timeline, as he prepares to contest for a second term in office. According to the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), the Anambra State governorship election is scheduled for November 8, 2025.
