Atiku told the president-elect, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, that unlike him, he has consistently contested presidential elections because of his "drug-free record".

The former VP said he "has never had any issues bordering on constitutional qualification to contest for the office of the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria."
