…Says Atiku Meets All Requirements

The United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois, Eastern Division has said it has the power to sit over the case instituted by the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) presidential candidate in the 2023 election, Atiku Abubakar.

Atiku is asking the court to compel Chicago State University (CSU) to produce the academic records of President Bola Tinubu, Political Economist reports.


According to court documents, the court established that it has jurisdiction over the matter under US law, which authorises any “interested person” to request that a US District Court order the discovery of documents and testimony for use in a foreign proceeding from persons who “reside or are found” within its District.”

The court, therefore, held that Atiku satisfied all statutory requirements as he is an “interested person”; and the respondent, CSU, is a public university established and existing under the laws of Illinois, with its principal campus and offices in Chicago.

It said it would not hesitate to grant the prayers of Atiku.
