The presidential candidate of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), His Excellency Atiku Abubakar, GCON, is set to address the ongoing controversy surrounding President Bola Tinubu’s academic records in a world press conference.
The Chicago State University (CSU) recently released educational documents that have raised questions about the authenticity of Tinubu’s qualifications, and Atiku is scheduled to shed light on this saga.
The press conference is scheduled to take place at the Yar’Adua Centre on Thursday, October 5, 2023, by 3 p.m.

The revelation of discrepancies in President Tinubu’s 1979 CSU certificate, submitted to the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), compared to the certificates issued to other students in the same year has sparked controversy.
CSU records indicate a clear inconsistency between the certificate presented to INEC and the university’s official documents. During a deposition, the CSU Registrar, under oath, expressed an inability to authenticate the certificate submitted by President Tinubu to INEC.
It’s worth noting that Atiku Abubakar had obtained these documents through a court subpoena, as President Tinubu had resisted their disclosure.
The PDP presidential candidate had maintained silence on the matter until now, leaving many to speculate about the implications of these revelations.
