In response to these speculations regarding the purpose of the journey, Kurugu clarified that the senator left Nigeria on Thursday for personal reasons, not for health-related matters.

"Senator Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso departs Nigeria for personal reasons. It is not for medical tourism or any health-related reason," he stated.

Additionally, a media aide to Kwankwaso, Saifullahi Hassan, also dismissed the notion of a health-related trip, labeling it as misinformation propagated by political adversaries.

Hassan pointed out that Kwankwaso had visited Singer Market in Kano on Thursday morning to empathize with traders affected by a recent fire incident that resulted in substantial losses of goods and property.
