Plus10:
The amount of cash and time APC and Buhari spend in fighting oppositions is more than a enough to transform Nigeria to a developed nation.

since 1960 till date Nigeria has lost more Dan $500b to corruption, that is enough to make d country a developed nation, not just d past 4 or 16yrs. and I do not believe APC spend money to stop Atiku trip for 13yrs

3 Gbosa for Atiku the aide of life. Looking like Saraki’s cook in the pictures.

Buhari is bastard pariah dullard

someone atikulate Nigeria

Sometimes this whole propaganda surprises me, how do APC spend the money? Do they went to bribe the consular or the US ambassador not to insure Atiku visa? Or they bribe Donald Trump or the US government? Sometimes we don't reason or ask questions that's why these set of people are taking us for a fool. Can you spend money to stop any embassy for issuing visa? Is totally at the discretion of the country. PDP please tell us the amount spend with facts because we want to know since US embassy have start taking money to block or issue visa

hisgrace090:
Is it why APC have refused to be consoled since atiku trip to the US?

Lol you no well

So billions was spent to organize protest involving how many people? These PDP and their unintelligent rants sef

santopelele:

APC dey rant too. Ranting continua. U rant I rant back.

richidinho:
I thought they wanted to Arrest Atiku?

F000000000ls

The person that advised them not to must be genius

I don't know how some of you reason. Atiku that was part of Saraki's Aide to US and youcal that a trip. There is no way US will arrest someone that is with a Nigerian Senate President. Even Nigeria Can't to otherwise.


If Atiku Get Mind Let Him Travel To US on is own, just the way he travels to Dubai and see if he won't be arrested.

APC is useless

how come.... his it not of debate he was present in Nigeria

APC will spend billions of naira in order to stop Atiku from entering US? doesn't that sound stupid? do you think APC is a careless spender like the PDP when they're in power? op use your brain nah!

Damsyjay:
is it the one he went as the senate president Aide abi which one??

Aide or no Aide, Hope you know the US has the right to refuse him visa.

Damsyjay:
is it the one he went as the senate president Aide abi which one??

No..its the one Trump callee him LIFELESS...why are you so forgetful?

12345baba:

The truth is Pdp is not even following their campaign timetable. How will they fulfill their so called promise to Nigerians.

Frankyboy1:

why you are all here,debating,insulting yourselves, sourcing for likes and shares, online polls, and all that, you do not make up to 3% of the actual voters, you are only the few enlightened ones who genuinely care about the well being of your nation, but from my study,I am sorry to inform you that the largest chunk of the voters are out there,jobless,uneducated, unenlightened, no access to information, they re not aware buhari slumped or suffers dementia, they do not even understand they do not care, they can't read or comprehend, then d agberos, d street urchins, election period is their season, of cheap money,oppression,a form of relevance, so the politicians who have the cash and means buys them over, this re the people that determines who wins in my country, a tragic irony!I voted buhari in 2015,but all information and indications available to me, I won't vote him again, neither am I a fan of atiku either, though presently atiku is a better fit than buhari,but I can never trust d PDP and their precedents, so I vote a sowore or ezekwesili, even if they don't win, my conscience is satisfied

Waste of votes. You better stay at home.

Festus Festus... This Guy na fire o. Even Atiku Pikins fit desert am after reading wetin Festus Keyamo just write about Atiku going to America, and no be Eddie Murphy movie: Mek una read una self.

THIS KEYAMO IS A WICKED MAN...SEE AS HE JUST BREAK ALL DE TABLE LEGS.... LOL!

PRESS STATEMENT BY APC PRESIDENTIAL CAMPAIGN COUNCIL

ON

ATIKU’S CLANDESTINE VISIT TO THE U.S

In our press release issued on Sunday, December 30, 2018, titled “WHEN THE THIEF IS SHOUTING THIEF”: THE CASE OF ALHAJI ATIKU ABUBAKAR”, we correctly predicted as follows: “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”.

Therefore, we were not surprised by his visit to the U.S. For us, this visit is really a non-event considering the issues involved in the forthcoming election. However, we have bad news for those who think this is a momentous event for Atiku Abubakar: the visit was nothing but a downright catastrophe because rather than dispel the fact of indictments hanging over his head, it further confirms and reinforces those facts for the following reasons:

(1) The visit had all the trappings of a fugitive sneaking into America under a “special diplomatic waiver”. For the candidate of the major opposition party in Nigeria, it is an absolute disaster that the visit was not announced ahead of time in Nigeria, with his programmes and itinerary clearly spelt out, the decent and customary minimum standard of such visits. This culminated in his close aides issuing conflicting statements about the visit when he was already on his way there. In fact, one of them called Paul Ibe actually spoke to the Press that his principal was nowhere near America! Such was the secrecy of the planning and execution of that visit.

(2) It is shameful that a presidential candidate of a major opposition party in Africa’s most populous country would visit America, and the international press was kept in the dark: There was NO SINGLE press conference with the array of international media and correspondents required for such ‘high-profile’ visit. Atiku knows he has no moral stamina to withstand the avalanche of hard questions bordering on his sordid past in America. In fact, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar claims he visited the Voice of America (VOA) but only did two carefully-packaged interviews with the Hausa service and the English to Africa program - platforms that have always been available to him back home. How strange! In fact, both the Twitter handle (@VOANews) and official website of VOA did not mention any such visit of Alhaji Atiku Abubakar to their station. For news hounds, you would agree with us that such an ‘important personality’ cannot walk into a news premises without reporters swooping on him. Whatever he went to do in the premises of the VOA must have been a carefully-arranged private visit for the photo-ops, which was intended to scam Nigerians. What more evidence do we need of a “sneak-in-sneak-out” arrangement than this?.

(3) For a candidate who claims he wants to “get Nigeria working again” (a meaningless phrase) to sneak into America without meeting major players in private businesses is a curiosity and an indication that we are dealing with a candidate with a dodgy and questionable character. He claims he went to the U.S Chamber of Commerce, which is supposed to be a business federation. Again, the Twitter handle (@USChamber) and the website of the organization make no mention of the visit of such an ‘important personality’ to them. Maybe their famous American lobbyist on a salary of N9million per month can help them ‘do something’ about this after this press statement.

(4) It is also an anomaly that the candidate of the major opposition party in Nigeria sneaked into America and did not meet large sections of political leaders of similar ideologies and persuasions towards which he claims to be inclined. For all his claim to be going to America to meet “U.S Government officials”, he only succeeded in meeting a certain “Congressman Smith”, who is the equivalent of a member of the House of Representatives in Nigeria. You would agree with us that as dignified and respected as the office of a Member of the House of Representatives is, an important personality cannot come to Nigeria on an official visit and claim he has met the “Nigerian government officials” after he pays a private visit to that Member. For all we know, the Congressman Smith may just be a private friend of Dr. Bukola Saraki or Alhaji Atiku Abubakar. That reminds us of Atiku’s famous legislator friend he threw under the bus, Williams Jefferson, who taught us how to hide laundered money ( which was meant for Atiku Abubakar) in the deep freezer when the cops came knocking on his door!

In all, it is very obvious now that the so-called American trip was a desperate trip for photo-ops. Throughout the trip, Atiku Abubakar looked cagey, frightened and on edge. We note the close support always provided by Senate President Bukola Saraki like a comforting guardian angel. The visit and arrangements smack of things local yahoo yahoo boys do to scam their victims. It is utterly disgusting and puerile that it has been brought into a serious political contest.

Rather than being the highpoint of his campaign, the American visit is indeed the lowest watermark of Atiku Abubakar’s campaign. It was a political and P.R disaster. The statements he released from there only to the Nigerian Press back home that he intends to alienate other countries and do business with the U.S is actually the antithesis to our policy of non-alignment.

For the information of Alhaji Atiku Abubakar and his handlers, Nigerians know that Nigeria is already working again for everyone and not for a few. As confirmed by him in a town-hall meeting a few days before his disastrous trip to the U.S, he said he wants to “get Nigeria working again” only for few of his friends who he claims he wants to make rich. If he cannot get them rich now from his private businesses, it is obvious that he is referring to the use of public funds to make his friends rich. Nigerians should judge for themselves whether this is the type of President they want.

Finally, whoever advised Atiku Abubakar to undertake that trip to America just destroyed his entire campaign and exposed him for who he is – a questionable character who has continued to leave huge questions over his suitability for the highest office of the land and as such cannot be trusted by the Nigerian people.

Thank you.
