I saved Obasanjo from alleged deadly injection in prison — Atiku

The African Democratic Congress presidential candidate for the 2027 general election, Atiku Abubakar, has claimed that he saved former President Olusegun Obasanjo from an alleged deadly injection while in prison.

He said he was the one who leaked the information about the planned injection, warning Obasanjo not to allow it to be administered on him.

Abubakar made this revelation when he spoke with newsmen in Abuja on Thursday.

He said it was the same way a former Chief of Staff, Supreme Headquarters. General Shehu Musa Yar’Adua, was killed.

He said: “I saved Obasanjo’s life in prison by leaking information about an impending injection that could have killed him.

“They did the same to Yar’Adua.

“And when I learnt they planned to do it to him, I warned him not to allow the injection.

“Today, he wants the world to hate me because I opposed his third-term ambition.”
