According to the former Airforce Senior Officer,

“Atiku who is now over 72 years old has never associated himself with Wurno , headquarters of Wurno Local Government of Sokoto State, where he claims his grandfather hailed from.

“His false and atrocious claim is just coming now that he is being bogged down by a protracted electoral litigation sequel to the 2019 Presidential elections.

Retired squadron leader Aminu Bala Sokoto, said the people of Wurno and by extension, Sokoto State, is strongly and vehemently rejecting and dispensing Atiku Abubakar.
