Former Nigerian Vice President Atiku Abubakar met privately with Aisha Buhari, the widow of former President Muhammadu Buhari, in Saudi Arabia during a religious visit. Atiku confirmed the meeting on social media, explaining that he received the former First Lady's daughter, Hanan, during his stay in Saudi Arabia.

The encounter was described as a warm and respectful exchange of prayers and goodwill, with a focus on religious matters rather than politics. Aisha Buhari and her family were in Saudi Arabia for the lesser Hajj, known as Umrah.
