I saw this. It was a strange endorsement with no policy reason given. Naqvi just said: "I’m supporting @_MarkSutcliffe because he is a longtime friend. We often run together!"
He's my friend and we run together is not a legitimate reason to support someone for mayor of a capital city. He's faced quite a lot of criticism for it for what it's worth.
