Social Media Reacts To Apc Claim That Atiku Is Not A Nigerian

social media have reacted to the claim by the All Progressives Congress, APC, that former Vice President and presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, in the just concluded general elections, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, is not a Nigerian.

The Party in its petition filed by its lead counsel, Lateef Fagbemi faulted the candidacy of Atiku in the election, claiming that Atiku is a Cameroonian and not a Nigerian citizen.

APC, hence stated that the former Vice President’s petition against President Muhammadu Buhari, its own candidate, should be dismissed for lacking in merit.

lots Nigerians on Twitter condemned the claim by the ruling party, saying that it does not make sense.

Here are some reactions:

@tonyakabuno, “After so much time wasted by @OfficialAPCNg in replying to the strong petition of @atiku and @OfficialPDPNig, this is the response?
