Sources close to the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Atiku Abubakar, have dispelled claims in some quarters that the former Vice President was set to jet out of the country to the United States of America (USA).

Daily Trust learnt that Atiku had travelled to the UK last Thursday, but returned to the country to kick off his presidential campaign on Sunday in Sokoto.

A top source in the Atiku Media Office, who pleaded not to be mentioned said, “His Excellency embarked on a private visit to the UK, shortly after the inauguration of the PDP Presidential Campaign Council in Abuja. He has since returned. I think that addresses the issue.”

When asked for more details, he said, “I just left him at his residence. He moved immediately to the Airport from the venue of the inauguration on Thursday, and then came back today (yesterday).”

Another chieftain of the PDP from the North also told our correspondent in confidence that Atiku would go to the US in the course of the campaigns, but said, “now is time to kick off the campaigns in Nigeria; so, he is around to do that tomorrow (today).”

Since visiting the U.S.A. is all Atiku needs to become President, APC should get ready to trow in the towel when the man eventually does visit and even poses for pictures with top ranking U.S officials, in the course of his campaigns.

Atiku the fugitive

Of course!

In the last 24hrs that it was reported that he had gone to the US nobody saw you on Nairaland oh. All of you disappeared to cook up new stories.

You guys are being led like a lamb to the slaughter and you don't even know. Remind me to explain this in upcoming weeks.

Atiku's supporters are the most gullible people on earth. Atiku cannot dare set his foot on American soil. He's a fugitive and he knows that

Since when did travelling to the US Means better life for Nigerians ...


Nigeria does not need a traveler as a president...


This campaign must be issue based

Isoright

Atiku won't travel to America that is for sure

The three Arms of the American government are very independent of one another. Thus, even if he was granted the visa, the American judiciary system will still issue an arrest warrant once he lands in the US because he has a case to answer

That said, I think it only shows Atiku is the presidential candidate with the most baggage in Nigerian history.

Atiku never applied for Us visa.

If Atiku's VISA is not granted, he should apply for Mastercard, Discover or Amex..

My worry is why deceiving his supporters purposefully/intentionally

You are forbidden in a town, you said you can sing............

Atiku is a condemned criminal. Only people of like-mind support him

Aticulating

Let me start my own campaign from this end

Check my signature

APC cannot reduce the Nigerian presidential election to a discourse on VISA , there is no where in our constitution or on earth or in Heaven that it's is a crime not to apply for US Visa !!!!! APC should tell us what exactly the dullard wants a second term for after his woeful irredeemable performance

Obviously Atiku can't go to the United States without diplomatic immunity. That's why he wants to become the president so bad.

We should all forget about Atiku going to the United States, it's definitely not happening

My soon to be president Atiku has been busy working things out for himself
While the pained ones are jobless writing nonsense on the internet

that fugitive is soon to be your president

Food Don show for Zombies

Atiku travel to the US for where. If the same America can convict and jail their own why not Atiku if Nigeria can not convict and jail him for the alleged crime. Anyways, if you believe it is a wise decision for Atiku not to travel to the US now click Like and if you it is wise click Share!!!

Let him travel if he likes. We all know that the only swearing in he will attend is the 2nd term swearing in for Buhari
