Atiku may not visit US any time soon

Former Nigerian vice president and the People's Democratic Party's presidential candidate Atiku Abubakar may not visit the United States any time soon.

“What will I even go to do in America," Abubakar said during an interview with the Hausa service of the Voice of America.

The opposition candidate is being dogged by allegations of corruption.


He and his fourth wife Jennifer Douglas, an American citizen, were allegedly indicted in 2010in a 328-page American Senate committee report for transferring over $40 million "suspect funds" to America from offshore accounts between 2002 and 2008.

Abubakar served as Nigerian vice president between 199 and 2007.

"Ms Douglas helped her husband bring over $40 million in suspect funds into the United States, including at least $1.7 million in bribe payments from Siemens AG, a German corporation, and over $38 million from little known offshore corporations, primarily LetsGo Ltd. Inc., Guernsey Trust Company Nigeria Ltd., and Sima Holding Ltd," the Carl Levin-led Permanent Subcommittee on Investigation said on page 173 of its report.

Although Abubakar has not visited the United States since he was indicted, he has maintained that he did not wrong.

He insisted he can be Nigerian president without visiting America, one of Nigeria's most important allies.

In November, the Director General of the Atiku campaign organisation, Gbenga Daniel, says officials of the United States have hinted that Abubakar would get a U.S. visa if he applies for one.

"I can also confirm to you that in last few days that there have been signals from the American officials that he (Atiku) should indeed come forward so he can be granted a visa. So between you and I, all the issues are perception,” Daniel said in an interview on Channels Television programme, Politics Today.

Till date, U.S. Embassy in Nigeria and the State Department in Washington have declined to clarify issues around Abubakar’s visa, despite numerous media enquiries.

Deepthoughts:
The APC should be happy for Atiku to visit the US so that he can be disgraced n the elections will be a roller coaster for them but ironically the same Apc had to hire a crowd of jobless youth to stage a protest at the American embassy against the granting of visa to Atiku,one then begin to imagine if this impossible US visit by Atiku is not actually a political gang up considering that the US itself has neither declared Atiku wanted nor offered any clarification on the so call Atiku indictment.

maasoap:
A one-time visit to USA without immunity will clear the air. Adieu, journey of no return

maasoap:
Show us the prof that he had been applying for visa since, Mr Liar. He's a wanted criminal in USA, they would be glad to issue him one if he applies. It looks like you forgot your own opening question which sounded exactly like what your criminal Oga himself said.

chloride6:
You will go and do whatever you went to do there when you bought house and married a wife there....

God saved Atiku, APC had planned a bait for him...

Thank God he didnt fall for it..

i dont want him as president but i dont want him to languish in an american cell for life ....

How would it be heard that an ex VP of our great nation is bending down to pick up soap

olajizz01:
Visit to clear is corrupt name since the crime was committed in US not in Nigeria.

Boss13:
In other civilized society, these allegations are sufficient enough to discredit Atiku. However, in Nigeria, we ignore these issues. Then why do we expect better from Bad immoral leaders? I am not saying Buhari is a Saint too. A man that surrounds himself with crooks and call himself a Saint is nothing but a crook. Like minds attract each other.

I really do feel sad for Nigeria because just a few handful are pulling the strings to keep Nigeria the way it is because a bad Nigeria is good for their pockets.

Herdsmen:
