Atiku Returns To Nigeria, No Assurances Of Entering US Without Being Arrested by dotcomnamename: 9:17pm On Dec 01, 2018
Atiku Quickly Returns To Nigeria After Failing To Secure US Department of Justice Assurances Of Entering US Without Being Arrested.

A group, Initiative To Save Democracy has said that it has credible information that the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the 2019 presidential election, Atiku Abubakar has returned to Nigeria after failing to secure assurances from the US Department of Justice that he will not be arrested if he sets his foot into the soil of the United State.

TheCable had reported exclusively that the Waziri Adamawa secured a US visa and had travelled to the United Kingdom from where he will fly into the United state where he had not been able to step foot for more than 13 years.

But the group in a statement signed by its president, Akinloye James said Atiku had on Thursday travelled to the United Kingdom after securing a United States Visa from where he hopes to travel to the United State.

“His mission in the United Kingdom is to get the British Government to help him secure the assurances of the United States Department of Justice that he will not be arrested upon setting foot in US soil. But the British government is reported to have informed Abubakar that the US Department of Justice has made it clear that it cannot guarantee he will not be arrested.”

Atiku has refused to travel to the United States since the case of money laundering allegation involving him and a US congressman, Williams Jefferson came to limelight.

His counterpart in the United State, Williams Jefferson has already served jail term and made to refund part of the money traced to him for money laundering, but Atiku has since been walking free even though he has been unable to set foot in the US.

Having failed to secure the assurances of the British government and fearing that he may be arrested by the International Police (InterPol), Atiku quickly returned to Nigeria to forestall any possible arrest.

Paul Ibe, Head of the Atiku Media Office who has been speaking on behalf of the PDP presidential candidate prior to appointing a spokesman for his campaign tweeted a while ago that Atiku has since returned to Abuja.

“HE @atiku embarked on a private visit to the United Kingdom on Thursday shortly after the inauguration of his Presidential Campaign Council. He has since returned back to Abuja,” I’ve said in the tweet.

His tweet counters report by TheCable that Atiku will spend sometime in the United Kingdom before traveling to the United State.

“Report that Atiku obtained US Visa and travelled to the UK may be true, but the part that he would be traveling to the US is completely false,” Mr James said.

So Atiku's travelling to USA or not is what we should be discussing now and not what they will do in office if voted in as president?

The liars are at it again. Once USA approves your visa, it means you've been cleared of any charges( if you were once indicted of one). Visa means, access or clearance . Atiku doesmt need any further clearance once the visa has been issued to him. Only some gullible minds would believe this fake news. The man is on his way to the uk now, if he's not there already, if what's said of him is true . No amount of apc lies would stop me from voting this man next year. Right-thinking Nigerians know we need him.

Pathetic souls. He will still enter US in due time, then you guys will change the music as usual, maybe then we will start hearing things like "Atiku forged passport to get visa" "Atiku gave $10,000,000 to the US ambassador to get the visa" etc. Shameless people, you said the man cannot risk going to the US because he will be arrested, Now he applied for the same visa and the same apc started making noise that American government should deny him, should APC not be happy that he is about to go to jail? why are they in panic mode. Funny lots.

Atiku claiming he will travel to the USA by the end of November which he is unable to accomplish though he as the visa to the USA already should tell you he as no integrity. That is what the debate should be about. It is indeed sad you do not have the intelligence to figure that out but it is understandable that like every Ipob you all have chosen not to make use of your medulla when Atiku is the topic. You can now continue with you self delusion n denial.
