Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar has denied giving a Toyota Sport Utility Vehicle (SUV) to Lieutenant Ahmed Yerima, the naval officer involved in a recent altercation with the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike.
Reports on social media had claimed Atiku gifted a new SUV to the naval official after a heated argument with Wike over a land dispute in Abuja.
Reacting via a post on X on Thursday, November 13, 2025, Atiku’s Media Adviser, Paul Ibe, described the reports as false.

Ibe also urged the public to disregard the fabricated story.
He wrote: “His Excellency Atiku Abubakar, Vice President of Nigeria (1999-2007), did not gift Lt. Ahmed Yerima — or any other individual — a brand new Toyota SUV, contrary to the false reports currently circulating on social media.
“The story is entirely fabricated and should be completely disregarded by the public.”
