Why US May Give Atiku Visa – Keyamo by Naijaalive(m): 11:17pm On Dec 30, 2018

The Director, Strategic Communications, President Muhammadu Buhari Campaign Organisation, Mr. Festus Keyamo (SAN), says the Presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, may soon be given a United States visa because he is a candidate for the Presidency.

Keyamo said this in a statement on Sunday while reacting to allegations levelled against his principal by Atiku’s campaign team.

He said US Congress in a report titled, ‘Keeping foreign corruption out of the US’, featured Atiku as one of the four notorious cases of money laundering in the world!

The senior advocate said, “Atiku’s co-conspirators, Williams Jefferson and Siemens in the bribery deal were convicted and Jefferson went to jail. By running for President of Nigeria, Atiku intends to get some immunity from prosecution.

“Already he is hoping to obtain a visa to visit the US, as a guest of the State Department, a concession that the US will grant to a Presidential candidate of Africa’s biggest nation.”

He said the congress report noted that Jennifer Douglas Abubakar, a US citizen, who is the fourth wife of Atiku, from 2000 to 2008, helped her husband bring over $40m in suspect funds into the US including at least $1.7m in bribe payments from Siemens AG, a German corporation, and over $38m from little known offshore corporations.

Keyamo said rather than answer to the allegations, Atiku a few days ago, called President Muhammadu Buhari over certain allegations of “corrupt practices” which the President allegedly condones in his government.

The senior advocate said the US Department of Justice’s claim that Atiku was not under investigation did not exonerate the former Vice-President.

He added, “How do we as a nation end up with anyone with this sordid record locally and internationally? We have heard the lame defence that the US Justice Department said it has no pending case against Atiku Abubakar. That is only a defence for the ignorant ones.

“In the US, there are indictments the Justice Department can confirm to the world. But there is another category of indictments known as sealed indictments that the Justice Department cannot confirm to anyone. These indictments are sealed under the orders of a Judge.

“Alhaji Atiku Abubakar has a sealed indictment waiting for him in the US. The day he visits the US, not as a candidate in an election, he will face charges.”

Watch these devils and criminals in the evil party change the goal post soon,now they are aware atiku is about getting the visa they built their campaigns on.
Next APC campaign stance would be:'if Atiku is not corrupt and claims he wasn't indicted for fraud in the US,he should pay a visit to Jefferson in prison'.

You are on point.

Imagine the lame points a supposedly "learned person" Festus Keyamo has put forward.


APC will indeed come up with a different angle when Atiku visits the US soon.

How APC thinks that we are all foolish people in this country amazes me. How Keyamo does a lame image laundering for this govt by open lying and distortion of narratives has become a source of concern to any sane mind. They built all their campaign manifesto on d shaky foundation of Atiku inability to secure a US visa and that blackmail is about being pulled off their very eyes and suddenly they want to change d goal post. Now Atiku is about visiting d US as they v all urged him and d new claim is cos he is standing election not even cos he is already a President of a country that ought to be enjoying immunity. Honestly, if Atiku goes to US as a candidate u can be sure truly d US is in support of a regime change and defeat of APC at d polls is just imminent.

It is not about getting a visa to the USA but but being safe from prosecution; the US is not like Nigeria where government may interfere and stall or interfere with cases with relative ease; there they have strongly backed institutions and practice true separation of power; even the president, Donald Trump, cannot save him should the justice dept wish to prosecute him.

People are hungry and all we hear is Atiku cant go to America. Can the government prove he is corrupt pr was this his only case of corruption?

Keyamo should bring up tje electoral promises made in 2015 aand show us which of them, they have achieved.

The US may give Atiku Visa but does not guarantee his arrest when he gets there a statement credited to the UK government when Atiku traveled to the UK. Let us conduct a poll by clicking Like if you believe Atiku will travel to the US and Share if you think he will not travel before the election!!
