ABUJA: Presidential Candidate of the African Democratic Congress ADC, Atiku Abubakar, has raised the alarm over a suspicious credit into one of his private bank accounts domiciled with one of Nigeria’s leading commercial banks, and has put security agencies on notice over the incident.
Phrank Shaibu, Senior Special Assistant on Public Communication to Atiku Abubakar, disclosed this in a statement issued on Friday, saying the transfer originated from a person totally unknown to the former Vice President, with the narration “Contribution Electioneering Campaign.”
According to the statement, neither Atiku nor his campaign solicited, authorised or has any knowledge of the individual or entity behind the unauthorised payment.
“The circumstances surrounding the transfer are deeply troubling to His Excellency,” the statement read, noting that the account is a strictly private one whose details are not in the public domain.
