Atiku Clears Air On Saturday Affidavit, Gives Tinubu New Challenge

Atiku Saturday affidavit

Atiku Abubakar has again exonerated himself of forgery as alleged by the camp of President Bola Tinubu saying that it was not unusual for affidavits like that backing his change of name to be signed on Saturday.

At a press conference in Abuja on Sunday the camp of Atiku Abubakar brought forth evidence of affidavits signed on Saturday in the same year, 1973 as they challenged President Tinubu to in the same way respond to the allegations of forgery and other allegations levelled against him. The Atiku Camp in an unusual move threw a lifeline to the president asking him to confide in the former Vice-President instead of hiring a horde of media aides to confuse the issue.

GWG.ng reports that Atiku Abubakar had produced an affidavit showing his change of name from Siddiq Abubakar to Atiku Abubakar. However, the Tinubu camp smelt a rat when they discovered that the affidavit was signed on a Saturday prompting a fresh focus on Atiku.

However, responding on Sunday at a press conference by his Special Assistant on Communications, Phrank Shaibu, the Atiku Camp said:

“Since the discovery of documents with Chicago State University brought to the fore the litany of certificate forgeries and impersonation by President Bola A. Tinubu, there have been attempts by many of his media aides to create a parallel narrative about the public life of former Vice President Atiku Abubakar.

“It was obvious from the start of their journey into futility that what the media aides and supporters of Bola A. Tinubu were doing was a random bite of the public profile of Atiku Abubakar until they found an item they could chomp with their filthy teeth.

“So, eventually, they found that the affidavit that Atiku Abubakar deposed to in August 18, 1973, wherein he expressed his wishes to be publicly known as Atiku Abubakar was signed on a Saturday.

“For them, it isn’t important that the person called Bola A. Tinubu was discovered to be the name of a female, nor was it important that Bola A. Tinubu forged a certificate he submitted to the Independent National Electoral Commission or that Bola A. Tinubu is the Guinea pig student of the Government College Lagos, who was used to test run the school four years before it was founded.

“All that mattered to them is to pick a hole in Atiku Abubakar’s public profile.

“But because we know the character of the man that we work for, we knew that their frenzy was all vain hallucinations.

Clearing the air on the Atiku affidavit signed on a Saturday, Shaibu who spoke for the team said:

“We conducted research into the registry of the Lagos State high courts in the same year, 1973, to see if it was really an absurdity to have court papers signed on a Saturday.

“The outcome of our findings showed clearly that there are court papers that were signed on Saturdays in the year 1973! Atiku Abubakar’s affidavit was not the only one signed on Saturday as the corn-men would want you to believe.”

“It is, therefore, on this note that we, yet again, call on President Bola A. Tinubu to follow the example of Atiku Abubakar to clear the air about all doubts and kuru kere about his past.

“Since Lagos is his domain, we ask Bola A. Tinubu to boldly walk into Government College Lagos and make available to the world, just as we have done today, a copy of his 1970 certificate with which he sought admission into the Chicago State University. He may as well tell us, the business center inside Oluwole Market in Lagos, where he printed the forged Chicago State University certificate that he presented to the Independent National Electoral Commission.

“And if, assuming the president is afraid to come out clean, because we can only assume at this point, that Bola A. Tinubu has some skeletons in his closet. He should feel free to confide in us what those skeletons are.

“It is embarrassing enough that the FBI and other anti-crime agencies in the United States are poised to start releasing information on our president any moment from now,” he concluded in explaining that there was nothing unusual with the Atiku affidavit being signed on a Saturday.
