The ex-Vice President and defeated presidential candidate, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, presented a pitiful image as he sat disheartened at the Shehu Yar ‘Adua Centre in Abuja after a so-called world press conference.
He had embarked on a futile journey to the United States in pursuit of President Bola Tinubu’s certificate, an endeavor that cost him dearly.
During the press conference, Atiku failed to unearth any incriminating evidence against the President and appeared to engage in political maneuvering, attempting to portray his trip as a quest for truth and accountability.
However, his credibility was called into question given his past, including his involvement in a bribery case in 2009 and allegations of corruption during his tenure in Customs.
Furthermore, claims of President Tinubu’s certificate being forged lacked substantial evidence, as the university registrar confirmed his attendance and graduation.
Atiku’s actions were seen as those of a sore loser, unlikely to achieve his objectives through this overseas venture, ultimately adding unnecessary tension to the political landscape.
