CSU: You Can’t Wield Nigeria Back To Desert, APC Chieftain Slams Atiku

Former deputy national publicity secretary of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Yekeni Nabena, has chide presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Atiku Abubakar, for attempting to rub President Bola Tinubu in the mud over his Chicago State University certificate.

According to Nabena, Nigerians have moved on with the leadership of President Tinubu, and the former vice president cannot wield the nation back to the desert.

The APC chieftain said all the noise about Chicago State University certificate is a pre-election matter that has been forgotten.

In a statement he issued on Friday in Abuja, Nabena asked Atiku “to rather start preparations for another contest in 2027 as usual rather than dragging the Nation backward.”
He noted that contrary to media propaganda by Atiku and opposition parties, “the registrar of Chicago State University (CSU) Caleb Westberb never said President Tinubu forged the certificate he submitted to the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) in Nigeria.”

He urged the public to be careful of manipulative reports being churned out by the opposition to cause confusion and seek public sympathy.

He noted that Nigeria is a sovereign state and until the highest court of the land says otherwise, President Tinubu is still the legitimately elected president and will continue to pilot the affairs of the country.

The Bayelsa-born politician called on party members, supporters of the president and all Nigerians to disregard all attempts by the opposition parties to create unneccessary tension and make the country ungovernable.

Nabena also drew attention of Nigerian Justices and the Supreme Court to the contempt of court by Atiku against the matter already in court of law.

He said, “Let me use this medium to tell the former Vice President to start preparing for another election in 2027 as usual. Heating up the polity over pre-election matters will not make him President of Nigeria.

“Atiku Abubakar should know by now that Nigerians have moved on. The country is now enjoying good governance because this administration is responsive and responsible. See what is happening across Ministries, Departments and Agencies. Nigerians will no longer wait for months to get their international passport when they apply. Over 204,000 backlog has been cleared within three weeks.

“Think about the welfare packages for the elderly by the Humanitarian Affairs Ministry, the bold step to remove the fuel subsidy that has held the country hostage for a long time, government intervention in all sectors like Avaition, Health, Transport, Economy, Agriculture and security, among others. This Renewed Hope Agenda is already working and Nigerians won’t allow anyone, including Atiku or Peter Obi to drag the Nation back to desert”.
