A photo shared online today, however, shows the entrepreneur and former lawmaker kneeling down to greet Tinubu and Shettima inside a mosque.

However, former presidential aspirant, Adamu Garba, alleged the gesture was Yusuf Datti’s way of lobbying to decamp to the ruling camp to support the Tinubu/Shettima ticket.

Sharing the photo via his verified Twitter handle, Garba wrote: “While lobbying to decamp to APC and support Tinubu/Shettima ticket, Yusuf Datti, Peter Obi’s Vice-Presidential candidate bows to Kashim Shettima and Bola Tinubu to pay homage.

“Baba ma da Babansa.”
