U.S. Didn’t Grant Atiku Visa – Embassy, He did not apply – Family source
Contrary to reports that the United States has granted visa to the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Atiku Abubakar, after 13 years ban, INDEPENDENT authoritatively reports that he was never given visa.
An embassy source told INDEPENDENT that U.S. position on Atiku has not changed.
A family source confirmed to INDEPENDENT that Atiku only traveled to the UK and is also back in the country.
The family source said Atiku did not even apply for visa from the U.S. embassy as reported in the week.
The Federal Government fearing that the U.S. wanted to grant Atiku visa had cautioned that it would mean endorsing him for the 2019 election.
