Guiderlaurel:
The Atiku Media Organization has raised an alarm that the APC through it's media group know as Buhari media organization (BMC) is planning a protest in the 36 state of the federation and also the US Embassy.

This was revealed via the groups Twitter handle known as @TeamAtikulate on Tuesday.

Coordinator of the Atiku Media Organization Laurel Chinedu revealed this saying that paid members of the Buhari Media Organization are planning to stage a protest in all states of the federation including the US Embassy with the theme #AtikutraveltoAmerica.

He went further to call such planned action as childish stating that His Excellency Atiku Abubakar has witnessed three administration since leaving his post as vice President and yet none of these administration has deemed it fit to charge him for any corruption case.

He pointed out that the American Government and the American immigration is yet to release any statement regarding Atiku Abubakar's ban to the United states of America.

You will recall that PDP Presidential candidate Atiku Abubakar was fingered in a 40million$ Halliburton scandal with the former vice president challenging Nigerians who accused him of being corrupt to come forward and

The report detailed how Atiku Abubakar while still the vice president of Nigeria between 2000 and 2008, used offshore companies to siphon millions of dollars to his fourth wife in the United States, Jennifer Douglas.

Specifically, the report said Jennifer Douglas, an American citizen, helped her husband bring over $40 million in suspect funds into the United States through wire transfers sent by offshore corporations to U.S. bank accounts.

In 2004, the then America President Bush barred Atiku and other corrupt politically exposed persons from being issued visa to the United States.

The heated rivalry between the APC and the PDP has continued to trigger serious concerns amongst many Nigerians as we have seen series of clashes between the two party leading to next years election.

They are devoid of ideas

Been Unable To Visit US — Atiku Speaks Out
FLASHBACK: Why I’ve Been Unable To Visit US — Atiku Speaks Out
Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar may have stirred the hornet’s nest with his interview with The Boss newspaper on why he has been unable to visit the United States (U.S.). He believes the reasons for denying him visa into the U.S. can only be explained by the U.S. government. But excerpts from a report however contradict Abubakar’s claim.
In an interview with The Boss newspaper, published Saturday, former Vice-President Atiku Abubakar stirred anew issues about his being barred from entering the United States (U.S.) and his being once denied a visa.
At the moment, there is no known indictment filed against the former Nigerian leader in any U.S. court, seven years after a Senate Report detailed money laundering activities against him, including being a recipient of a bribe by Siemens. Also, U.S. diplomats in Nigeria, have been dodgy declaring his status.
His political opponents had challenged him and even taunted him several times to go to the U.S. on a visit, to test whether he is wanted for any financial crime. He is yet to take up the challenge as he brews another controversy.
What is known is that Abubakar was the subject of a probe 10 years ago, by a U.S. Senate Permanent sub-committee on Investigations, chaired by Senator Carl Levin
The committee submitted its report on 4, February, 2010, three years after Abubakar left office.
The report unveiled violations of U.S. laws by Abubakar and his fourth wife, Jennifer Douglas. since then.
Summary of the report on Abubakar case history
From 2000 to 2008, Jennifer Douglas, a U.S. citizen and the fourth wife of Atiku Abubakar, former Vice President and former candidate for President of Nigeria, helped her husband bring over $40 million in suspect funds into the United States through wire transfers sent by offshore corporations to U.S. bank accounts.
In a 2008 civil complaint, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission alleged that Ms. Douglas received over $2 million in bribe payments in 2001 and 2002, from Siemens AG, a major German corporation.
While Ms. Douglas denies wrongdoing, Siemens has already pleaded guilty to U.S. criminal charges and settled civil charges related to bribery and told the sub-committee that it sent the payments to one of her U.S. accounts.
In 2007, Mr. Abubakar was the subject of corruption allegations in Nigeria related to the Petroleum Technology Development Fund.
Of the $40 million in suspect funds, $25 million was wire transferred by offshore corporations into more than 30 U.S. bank accounts opened by Ms. Douglas, primarily by Guernsey Trust Company Nigeria Ltd., LetsGo Ltd. Inc., and Sima Holding Ltd.
The U.S. banks maintaining those accounts were, at times, unaware of her PEP status, and they allowed multiple, large offshore wire transfers into her accounts. As each bank began to question the offshore wire transfers, Ms. Douglas indicated that all of the funds came from her husband and professed little familiarity with the offshore corporations actually sending her money.
When one bank closed her account due to the offshore wire transfers, her lawyer helped convince other banks to provide a new account. In addition, two of the offshore corporations wire transferred about $14 million over five years to American University in Washington, D.C., to pay for consulting services related to the development of a Nigerian university founded by Mr. Abubakar.
American University accepted the wire transfers without asking about the identity of the offshore corporations or the source of their funds, because under current law, the University had no legal obligation to inquire.
Executive Summary
Combating corruption is a key U.S. value and goal, due to its corrosive effects on the rule of law, economic development, and democratic principles. In 2001, the Patriot Act made the acceptance of foreign corruption proceeds a U.S. money laundering offense for the first time, and required banks to apply enhanced scrutiny to private banking accounts opened for senior foreign political figures, their relatives, and close associates. In 2003, the U.S. supported the United Nations Convention Against Corruption, now ratified by over 140 countries. Also in 2003, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) formed an investigative group dedicated to combating foreign corruption by PEPs. In 2004, President Bush issued Presidential Proclamation 7750 denying U.S. visas to foreign officials involved with corruption, and Congress later enacted supporting legislation

ATIKU: WE HAVE LEFT EGYPT

Someone wasted 5 Billion Naira in one night and yoh want us to entrust Nigeria to him? To use us do exchange to his American friends? God will not "accept" for una.

5 Billion Naira that can construct 200 world class health centres in rural areas at 50 million per one. It can build 10,000 world standard classrooms with all modern equipments fitted in. It can construct 500 kilometres of world standard roads at 50 million Naira per kilometre. If you inject 5 billion into any public university in Nigeria and it is judiciously utilised, it will turn the infrastructure there around for good.

That is the amount our moneybag politician called Atiku Abubakar blowed away in one night on 1500 individuals. That is the mindset of the man who wants to rule us in 21st Century. Are that poor as a people? Are we that unfortunate as a society? Are we so much poor in reasoning? By the time he is done with his presidential campaign, close to a hundred billion would have been wasted. Surely, he will go recoup his money on getting to power (God forbid).

But like the sayings of our fathers, flood won't hesitate to pull down one's building but the owner of such building will be the one to device means to outsmart the stubborn flood. We did it in 2015. We will do it again. We have made a lot of progress as a nation. We won't allow thieves to come back. We will stand to them and match them in whatever way they want it. Buhari must be reelected. We can't go back to Egypt. We are almost in our promise land.

He owns himself, he owns his money and will choose where to, and where not to go. The agents of the visiting president of Nigeria should grow up and stop being stupid.
