BREAKING: Atiku makes fresh allegation against President Tinubu over Chicago University records

Atiku Abubakar, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) flagbearer in the February 25 presidential election, has accused President Bola Tinubu of boycotting primary and secondary school education to move to Chicago State University.
