Paul Ibe, a spokesman for Atiku Abubakar, has responded to claims by the APC Presidential Campaign Council regarding the Mambilla arbitration. Ibe stated that the tribunal did not deliver a corruption verdict against Atiku, but rather examined a $500,000 transfer made in 2003 to Atiku's then-wife, Jennifer Douglas. He noted that the tribunal found the explanation for the payment unsupported and raised 'red flags,' but that these do not constitute proof of corruption or a finding that Atiku used his office to procure the Mambilla contract.
