Widow of slain officer refutes Atiku's claim of reaching out to her this Christmas, says ''I didn't receive any call from you''

The widow of one of Nigeria's fallen hero, Lt. Col. Ibrahim Sakaba, has refuted claims made by PDP Presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, that he reached out to her via phone this yuletide. Sakaba was killed during the Boko Haram attack in Metele, Borno state in November.

Atiku shared the picture on the left on his twitter handle yesterday December 23rd with claims that he spoke with the widow

''This Christmas, I urge all Nigerians to spare a thought for our military on the frontlines on the war on terror. I had cause to telephone Lt. Col. Ibrahim Sakaba’s widow this Yuletide. I am touched by her devotion & love for her husband who paid the supreme sacrifice for Nigeria.

However, late Sakaba's widow, Seun, has denied the claim. See what she wrote on her instagram page below
