Nigeria former Vice President, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar has said alleged forgery allegation leveled against him is a calculated move to downplay the allegations against President Bola Tinubu.
The Atiku Media Office in a statement issued on Sunday said the allegation is an attempts by the Presidency and the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) to drag his name into mud.
The presidential candidate’ Media Adviser, Paul Ibe, called on Tinubu and his handlers to desist from making any further attempts to compare the President and Atiku, insisting that all the names that Atiku bears are names that are traceable to his family tree.

The statement noted: “Contrary to Bola A. Tinubu’s forgery shopping allegation against Atiku, it is on record that the change of name of the former Vice President reverting to Atiku Abubakar from Siddiq Abubakar is well documented in an affidavit dated 18th of August 1973, spanning over a period of 50 years, (which incidentally is as old as the commencement of Tinubu’s life of forgeries and lies), is in the public domain.”
Ibe accused Tinubu of forging and lieing about every aspect of his life, including his name, heritage, education, certificates, date of birth, as well as work experience.
He added: “The attempt by Bola A. Tinubu to drag Atiku Abubakar into his drowning arena of forgery must be seen for what it is: an attempt to minimise the allegations of forgeries that he has to contend with.”

According to him, it has been established that Tinubu secured admission into Chicago university by impersonation.
He further said, “Curiously, handlers of this same Bola A. Tinubu have smuggled Adekunle, a middle name that magically popped up in his so-called National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) certificate into his Wikipedia on the 6th of October, 2023.
“This may yet be another indication of a master forger at work.”
