This comes amid the mourning of former Nigerian president Muhammadu Buhari, who died on Sunday, July 13, 2025, in London, while receiving medical treatment.
But addressing this, Ganduje’s son, Muhammad, explained that the former Kano state governor remained in good health .
Reacting to the rumours via his known X (formerly Twitter) handle, Gogel fumed at the claims about Ganduje’s alleged ill-health, saying the 75-year-old “is in London for official engagements, not due to any health issues.”
In another social media post a few hours later, Gogel stated that he had a conversation with Muhammad, the youngest son of Baba, receiving assurance that the Kano politician is in good health
Gogel wrote: “We thank God for his continued well-being and pray for his lasting health and strength.”
We recall that Ganduje quit the APC with immediate effect.
In his resignation letter, the former Kano state governor cited health concerns as the reason for stepping down, saying he needs to focus on his well-being.
Although Ganduje officially pointed to health reasons, multiple party insiders have linked his departure to sustained political pressure and internal discontent.
