The Presidential Candidate of the People’s Democratic Party, Atiku Abubakar, has mocked the Federal Government over its alleged failed bid to get the United States government to deny him visa.
He also said that with or without a trip to the US, the PDP will dislodge the President Muhammadu Buhari-led All Progressives Congress at next month’s election.
The former Vice President also dismissed as rooster and bull story, the allegation by the Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed that he has a case to answer over the collapse of Platinum Habib Bank, otherwise known as Bank PHB.
In a statement issued in Abuja on Friday, Atiku’s Special Assistant on Public Communication, Mr. Phrank Shaibu said the federal government should bury its head in shame having failed to stop him from travelling to the US.
He said it was shameful that the governing APC took it upon itself to call on the authorities of another country not to grant a private citizen entry visa, which ordinarily should not be its business.
Mohammed had at the hint of the US granting Atiku visa last year, cautioned the Americans not to contemplate the gesture as it might give the impression that the foreign power is supportive of the opposition party’s candidate.
But Atiku who arrived in the US on
Thursday said the APC was jittery knowing that its government has
failed, stressing that Buhari’s days as president of Nigeria were
numbered, which explains why members of the ruling party have been
running from pillar to post.

I know that politics is nothing but a game yet my prayers for Nigeria is that God should give us a man after his heart, we are tired of their campaign promises without action.
