The Peoples Democratic Party presidential candidate in the February 25 elections Atiku Abubakar has sued President Bola Tinubu at a United States of America District Court for the Northern District of Illinois.
Atiku’s spokesperson, Mr Phrank Shaibu, who revealed this said Atiku’s suit against Tinubu is marked No. 23-5099 (N. D. III.).
According to Shaibu, the new suit was replaces the one Atiku withdrew from a Circuit Court in Illinois.
In the latest case, Atiku, is challenging the declaration by the Independent National Electoral Commission that Tinubu won the poll.
Shaibu I a late night statement on Sunday said, “Atiku Abubakar only withdrew the case before a Circuit Court of Cook County, Illinois County, United States of America because he is pursuing the same matter in a higher court and he wanted to avoid abuse of court processes. So, this is just the beginning.”
He said Tinubu’s academic records from primary school till university remained questionable, hence the President’s failure to identify a single former classmate of his.
“In the past weeks, Nigerians have been watching the ongoing ministerial screening at the Senate where nominees have been made to reveal their primary, secondary and university history. Some of the ministerial nominees were even classmates with the senators screening them.
“However, the man who nominated them has no educational history. He has no primary school, secondary school or university classmates. This is because he has no classmates. He actually fell from the sky.
“In recent years, past Presidents have invited their former classmates to Aso Rock Villa. Even President Muhammadu Buhari hosted his classmates from Katsina Middle School. But who did Bola Tinubu invite to the Presidential Villa? Governors from 1999 set.”
