With the way things are going ehn, very soon, ‘cross-carpeting’ to Yankee wee be very easy o.
That is if the present president of the United States of America, Joe Biden, listens to Atiku Abubabar’s plea.
We know that Joe Biden had already promised to lift the travel ban placed by Trump on some citizens of more than 12 countries (including Nigeria) but there are still some speculations that the ban placed on some Nigerian politicians over money laundering and election rigging cases, may not be lifted.
The former vice-president, in his goodwill message to the newly-sworn President, said;
“As I congratulate President Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris, I urge them and their administration to strengthen US-Nigeria ties, and help our beloved nation’s war on terror by providing every type of support required to win our war against the insurgency we face and that threatens the peace of our sub-region.
I also look forward to the removal of every travel restriction on Nigerian citizens, in keeping with the good relations that has existed between our two nations, beginning with the July 27, 1961 state visit of our first Prime Minister, Alhaji Tafawa Balewa, to President John F Kennedy, and continuing over the decades since then."
It’s no news that there were also speculations of the US Department of Justice being in possession of sealed reports indicting him of money laundering.
Hmmm. Ok oo.
What do you think about the plea?
