The Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives, Ahmed Idris Wase, led some the lawmakers from the north to visit Bola Tinubu, in London, United Kingdom, where he is currently recuperating.
The APC chieftain has been having several high-powered meetings over the last few weeks in London with speculations in some quarters that it could be closely related to his rumoured presidential ambition.

Tinubu, who has had several medical trips this year alone, had a surgery some months ago.
