Atiku Can't Visit America,Being Haunted By Demon of Corruption - Gov Rufai

                               

Governor of Kaduna State, El Rufai responded to former vice president Atiku Abubakar less than 24 hours after claiming he was innocent of  the Halliburton scandal that sent a U.S senator to jail,Rufai said Atiku  is being haunted by  demons of corruption.he declared that Atiku is culpable of the Halliburton case,if not he dare Atiku to visit the  United States of America if he was not culpable in the wiring of $40m to the US,


In a statement entitled, “Atiku haunted by his corrupt demons,” urged Atiku to come clean with the findings of the report of the United States’ Senate Permanent Sub-Committee on Investigations which detailed the wire transfers involving the $40m from offshore companies.

Rufai alleges that the offshore company transfer fund into accounts controlled by Atiku and one of his wives,he further added that the ex Nigerian Vice president is being  being obsessed with the ambition of becoming the President of Nigeria.

El-Rufai said, “This statement is issued in response to the latest falsehoods emerging from Alhaji Atiku Abubakar. He has a record of spewing outright lies and innuendos against my person. As we struggle to build a law-abiding society and secure progressive outcomes for our people, we cannot allow the triumph on these shores of those who will have us move to a post-factual world.

“Not even from a man as practised as Alhaji Atiku is in the dark arts of damaging other people through a campaign of lies from him and his media machine. Therefore, I am constrained to provide a response to the fake news and irresponsible revision of recent history by Alhaji Atiku.

“The report detailing the US Senate findings is online. Alhaji Atiku should tell a better tale of why he is avoiding the United States of America.

“I never had anything to do with the incorporation of Transcorp. Those that established that company like Festus Odimegwu, Tony Elumelu, Otunba Lawal Solarin and Ndi Okereke-Onyiuke are still around and alive. As such, I could not have, and did not offer Alhaji Atiku any shares in Transcorp. I declined the shares that were offered me. Having done that, how could I have offered anyone shares?”
