Atiku responds to comment of dropping his pursuit against President Tinubu
The former vice president made the comment while reacting to the question on the possibility of him dropping the identity theft case he was pursuing against President Tinubu.
Atiku had approached a US court and secured an injunction compelling the Chicago State University to make the academic records of President Tinubu available to him.
Following the court order, Atiku received the academic records of President Tinubu and subsequently alleged that the president submitted a fake Chicago State University certificate to the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).
"Better ways to unseat Bola Tinubu": Omokri tells Atiku on certificate digging
Legit.ng earlier reported that a PDP Chieftain, Reno Omokri, has urged critics of President Bola Tinubu to desist from digging into his academic records.
The former presidential aide noted that there are many ways to unseat the President than trying to find errors in his academic records.
According to Omokri, Atiku Abubakar of the PDP would be a better president than Tinubu, but that does not mean that Tinubu did not finish at Chicago State University.
