The United States secretary of state, Michael Pompeo, placed a call to Atiku Abubakar, presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), on Friday. Atiku disclosed this via his official Twitter handle but did not give details of his conversation with Pompeo.

He, however, said Pompeo affirmed the international community’s commitment to free, fair and credible elections in Nigeria.
The presidential and national assembly polls will hold on Saturday, while that of the governorship and state house of assembly will hold on March 2.
Quote
“Earlier today I received a call from US Secretary of State, @SecPompeo, who reaffirmed the international community’s commitment to free and fair elections in Nigeria,”
he wrote.

There have been speculations that the US is in support of the candidature of Atiku, especially after he visited the country in January, 12 years after being denied visa.
