In the video, which went viral on the social media, Achimugu warned Nigerians against voting Atiku as president on the grounds of his alleged corrupt tendencies.
Corroborating his claims, the ex-aide shared an audio recording of alleged phone conversion between him and Atiku, in which the former vice president admitted that while serving as deputy to Obasanjo between 1999 and 2007, he founded the SPVs with the aim to “carry out certain activities” in a deceitful bid to avoid being linked to corruption.
Reacting to Achimugu’s revelations on Monday in Abuja, through the APC presidential campaign council at a world press conference, Tinubu insisted on the arrest of Atiku, saying the former vice president does not enjoy immunity simply because he is a presidential candidate.
