Tinubu Questions Atiku's Wealth from University Venture

During a campaign rally in Rivers State on November 7, President Bola Tinubu publicly challenged former Vice President Atiku Abubakar regarding the establishment of a university during Atiku's tenure as vice president from 1999 to 2007. Tinubu, who is the candidate of the ruling All Progressives Congress for the 2027 elections, dismissed criticisms of his administration's handling of economic issues, stating he is addressing problems left by previous administrations, specifically targeting Atiku.

He claimed, "Those people talking of hunger, I'm cleaning the mess they created." The reference to the university aimed to raise questions about Atiku's wealth accumulation while in public office. This rally marks an early campaign event as both Tinubu and Atiku prepare for the upcoming presidential race.
