A youth leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Hyde Kalu has appealed to the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Atiku Abubakar to discontinue the suit he filed against President Bola Tinubu in the United States.
In the suit, Atiku asked a US district court to order Chicago State University, to release President Tinubu’s academic records.
Kalu in a statement released on Monday begged Atiku to save the country the shame and embarrassment.
The statement read, “Atiku is a statesman, and it is not in contention that he has the love of Nigeria at heart.
“I am sure that no Nigerian is happy with the way our country has been subjected to ridicule over the court ruling in the United States.
“For the love of this country and to spare Nigerians the shame of how this process may end, it is important that we plead with Atiku to drop that case and not allow us to wash our dirty linens in public.
“We are all patriots, and I believe that we can have a decent way of handling this matter and save Nigerians the shame of this impending embarrassment.
“The election has come and gone, and a president has emerged. We are all humans, and that is why I am pleading with Atiku to discontinue the case in America for the sake of the country and in consideration of the friendship between him and President Tinubu.”
