President Bola Ahmed Tinubu met with former President Goodluck Jonathan on Wednesday at the State House in Abuja.
Details of what they discussed haven’t been made public, leaving room for speculation about the purpose of the visit.
The meeting comes months after the two last sat down together in November 2025, shortly after Jonathan returned from Guinea-Bissau, where he had been leading an election observation mission.
That trip took a dramatic turn when soldiers seized power, halted the electoral process, and took control of key government institutions.
The situation sparked concern back home about Jonathan’s safety and that of his delegation.
He was eventually evacuated back to Nigeria, bringing an abrupt end to the mission.
Since then, Guinea-Bissau has seen a political shake-up, with a military-backed transition taking hold after the coup.
