Atiku Abubakar, the presidential
candidate of the People Democratic Party
(PDP), paid a visit to members of the US Congress, who are favourably
disposed to President Donald Trump.
The former vice-president, who
has not visited the US in 13 years, made a surprise visit to the US on
Thursday, with plans to speak at the US Chamber of Commerce on Friday.
Before his off the record meeting
at the chamber, Atiku paid a visit to Chris Smith (pictured above), a member of
the Republican Party, and representative for New Jersey, who is serving his
2oth term in office.
According to Osita Chidoka, Atiku
also met Micheal McCaul, the Homeland Security committee chairman at the US
Congress.
Both congressmen are known allies
of the current US president, who often back his policies in the US Congress.
Congressman Smith has supported
President Trump on 80 percent of his choices since he became president,
according to a project tracking congressmen in the United States.
McCaul, on the other hand, hails
from Texas and supported the president fiercely on his decision to pull out the
US-Iran nuclear deal.
“The President’s decision today
to withdraw from the nuclear agreement is based on these facts. We need a
tougher approach and I commend President Trump for leading this effort,” McCaul
had said about Trump’s decision to cancel the deal.
He has supported 98.1 percent of
Trump’s decisions since the latter became president in January 2017.
