The PDP national spokesman said that it is now obvious to Nigerians who is to be held responsible should any harm come to Atiku.

Earlier, Legit.ng reported that the special assistant to President Muhammadu on social media, Lauretta Onochie, had said Atiku should counsel himself.

Onochie, who took to her Twitter page to give the warning on Tuesday, April 9, said Atiku is lucky to be walking free. Legit.ng gathered that the presidential aide stated that she saw Atiku's pictures with some weird inscriptions.

She said whatever the former vice president is planning, he should not forget that Nigeria has a president in place.
