Atiku Abubakar Withdraws Case Against Tinubu, Files New Lawsuit In U.S. District Court

The presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Atiku Abubakar, has revealed that he withdrew a case against President Bola Ahmed Tinubu at the Circuit Court of Cook County, Illinois County, in the United States of America.

Instead, Atiku has filed a fresh case, No. 23-5099 (N. D. III.), in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois against Tinubu.

According to a statement from Atiku’s special assistant on public communications, Phrank Shaibu, the decision to withdraw the existing case was to avoid an abuse of court processes since the same matter is now being pursued in a higher court. Shaibu emphasized that this is just the beginning of the legal proceedings….CONTINUE READING

The previous case filed by Atiku at the Circuit Court of Cook County sought access to Tinubu’s educational records at the Chicago State University, but it was dismissed by the court.

Reacting to the development, Shaibu pointed out that Tinubu and his supporters are rejoicing over the withdrawal as if it were a Supreme Court judgment. He further criticized Tinubu’s academic records, claiming they remain questionable, as there is no evidence of him having any former classmates from primary school to university.

This has raised doubts about Tinubu’s educational background and credentials.

Shaibu expressed disappointment that the President’s history is shrouded in secrecy, and Atiku’s efforts to uncover the truth about Tinubu’s past are being obstructed.

He insisted that the person holding the Office of the President must have a transparent and credible life history. Shaibu also highlighted the need to reveal the truth about Tinubu’s past, as the secrecy around it suggests he might be hiding something.

The statement concluded by condemning Tinubu’s supporters for celebrating the alleged cover-up of their candidate’s past, questioning why someone aspiring to be President would hide their life history and credentials. Atiku’s camp remains determined to expose the truth about Tinubu’s background.
