The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Deputy National Publicity Secretary, Ibrahim Abdullahi, has revealed evidence suggesting a conflict in the academic records of President Bola Tinubu, which were reportedly obtained from Chicago State University (CSU).
This revelation comes as part of the ongoing legal battle involving the PDP and Atiku Abubakar against President Tinubu.
Abdullahi, during an interview with The Punch monitored by Quest Times, hinted that these crucial documents would be submitted before the Supreme Court to bolster the PDP’s case. This development marks a significant turn of events and is seen as a vindication for the PDP.
Abdullahi emphasized, “We have suspected and proven that we have a conflicting record about Tinubu, the president of the country, and that is why we sought reliefs from the court to see what he was issued when he graduated from the Chicago State University as he claimed in 1979.”
He further added, “He who alleges must prove. Now that we have the document, we will tender it before the Supreme Court. So it’s now for the revered justices of the Supreme Court to see if indeed what we have said against this person can be proven, and then the necessary thing be done per the extant provisions, laws, and the Electoral Act.”
Abdullahi’s remarks culminated with a call for President Tinubu to issue an apology to the Nigerian people and step down from his position. He stated, “If the judiciary has any modicum of honor left in it, this is the time to prove it, and if Tinubu and his people, APC have anything good for Nigeria in their entire conception, this is the time to prove it. Tinubu and the APC should apologize to Nigerians, hand over, and go.”
