The United States Department of Justice has denied having any record that indicates that Nigeria’s former Vice President, Atiku Abubakar, has a pending lawsuit in the US.

In an email to our correspondent on Friday, a spokesperson for the US DOJ, Peter Carr said, “Thank you for reaching out to us. I have checked the public court records, and they do not show cases filed against a defendant named Atiku Abubakar.”

This was stated as a response to SUNDAY PUNCH’s request for information on whether Abubakar is wanted in the US in connection with any issue of money laundering.

The mail also asked the department to confirm whether Abubakar has been banned from entering the US and if there is any court case against him concerning the Halliburton scandal which resulted in the conviction of a US lawmaker, William Jefferson.

Asked if it is true that the ex-vice president was banned from entering the US, the American official said the issue was confidential.

He said, “Visa issues are confidential under section 222(f) of the Immigration and Nationality Act. If your question is specifically about entry – not about visas per se – I would refer you to the US Customs and Border Protection.”

Last week, Kaduna State Governor, Mallam Nasir el-Rufai, had implied that Abubakar was avoiding a visit to the US because he might be charged with a case of money laundering.

He reacted to Abubakar’s interview which he granted to the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission’s quarterly publication, Zero Tolerance, where he had accused the Kaduna governor of corruption by offering him Transcorp’s shares.

No more rogues my brother

In other words, Atiku is not a person of interest to the American government.

If Atiku was wanted by the US, he would have been arrested in 2019 and 2023.

Tinubu has already lost this election.

By the way those of you betting on the 2023 presidency Naijabet. Naijabet are thieves and will never remit your money when you win. That's why they gave Tinubu the lowest odd of 1.90.

The real damage was done by PDP in their 16 years. Both Atiku and Obi were major players in PDP. Their calamity will never befall us again.

Be ashamed of yourself that after defending this failed government,you will go out and buy a bag of rice #45000 and change 1 pound at #840. When it was pretty beautiful under PDP.
You're a slave to APC

Obviously, it's up to you to sort out your problem not them

I never believed the indictment charges leveled against him in the first place. Atiku is just kind of person that doesn't talk much.

Shutting up cannot change truth and facts. Obi was part of the rotten system.
