Atiku’s US Trip; What A $1.1million Lobbying Contract Can Buy You In Washington

What does a $1.1 million lobbying contract buy in Trump's Washington? By Judd Legum. Atiku Abubakar, the former vice president of Nigeria, had not visited the United States for twelve years. He is currently running for president and his inability to travel to the United States was being used by his political opponents in Nigeria as proof of his corruption and unsuitability for public office. A former U.S. government official confirmed to Popular Information that Abubakar was formally barred from obtaining a visa pursuant to a presidential proclamation targeting corrupt foreign officials. Then everything changed. With the election less than a month away, Abubakar arrived in the United States last Thursday and promptly checked into the Trump hotel. What happened?

Atiku’s US Trip: So much ado about nothing

Atiku’s US Trip: So much ado about nothing – Tunde Ajose For good watchers of the Nigerian politics, one thing has come to stay in our political experiment at getting it right in this country and that is the ability for smart politicians to easily sway the electorates with mundane issues. The campaigns are no longer issue based but media sensationalism. Latest of such was the sudden appearance of the former Vice President, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar in the United States of America!
