Former vice-president and PDP presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, is set to travel to the US at the end of the month. This was disclosed by a former Senior Special Assistant on Public Affairs to President Jonathan,Dr. Doyin Okupe.
Recall that Mr Atiku's name was subject of discourse in a probe by the Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigation in a case of corruption in the US. Although, no lawsuit has been filed against him in the US, no court has declared him wanted either, some Nigerians believe he has some scores to settle in the US.
However, speaking on behalf of the former vice-president, former governor of Ogun State, Gbenga Daniel, had hinted that Atiku may travel to the US soonest. This has now been confirmed by Dr. Doyin Okupe who tweeted thus:
"Concerning the little understood but copiously exaggerated supposed travel ban on Atiku. His Excellency and In coming President of the federal republic of nigeria, Alhadji Atiku Abubakar will be travelling to the US for official and some public engagements by the end of Nov 2018"
